I think it was free back then, now I think Colt CHARGES you to look up a serial number. It was manufactured in 1917 by researching the serial number. 22 lr)Stupid room mate, I later sold that Colt for BIG bucks.
I was left with the second one, a Colt Lightning in. So he chose like a modern day Marlin 60 semi-auto. My roommate, since he actually owned the townhouse got first choice. She wanted NO guns at her house, so she asked me and my roommate if we wanted them.
The old lady next door knocked on my door one day and said she caught her grandson, who was living with here, hiding two rifles in his room. Still, it reminds me when I was living in a townhouse in Alexandria. Furthermore, I think the RW on my grandmother"s Remington must be a coincidence and that it stands for Remington Works instead of being a date code.Someone please correct me if I"m wrong.Does anyone know if it is possible to date a pre-1921 Remington based on the serial number?įrom what I"ve heard, Remington didn"t start keeping serial number records before 1921, so answer is probably no. Therefore, I think her Remington must be pre-1921.

However, the Barrel Code Location Diagram at this site bears no resemblance to my grandmother"s Remington. Glory: Sir, check hereRemington Society of America - questions/barrelcodes For one thing, the RW is on the bottom of the barrel, not the top.Therefore, I am beginning to wonder if the "RW" simply stands for "Remington Works", which is included in the information stamped on the top of the barrel. My grandmother"s rifle does not seem to fit the criteria for rifles manufactured after 1921. Introduction Year: 1909 Year Discontinued: 1936 If I am getting it right, the RW in your serial number means it was manufactured in November, 1928.Remington Dates of Manufacture This was helpful because I now know that my grandmother"s Remington is pre-1921.So my new question is this:How do I determine the manufacture date of a pre-1921 Remington 12A with serial number RW 158349?Can anyone point me in the right direction? Your suggestion led me to serial number information for Remington firearms manufactured after 1921.
