Remigtons have a date code on the barrel. As long as it is the original barrel this is pretty accurate. For about 2 years, 1990-91 I think they temporarily stopped dating the barrels. If you find one with no date code you'll need to contact Remington. Or if not the original barrel which happens quite often on 870's and other shotguns. Not as common on rifles.

Ruger lists a manufacturing date somewhere on their website. Here I think.

Click on the specific rifle for a SN range and the dates made for the Rugers.
Most Marlins made after 1972 have an easy date code built into the SN. Just subtract the 1st 2 digits of the SN from 100. For example if the 1st 2 numbers are 25, the gun was built in 1975. If it is 88, the gun was made in 2012. For older guns look here. This code does not work with all guns. Some limited runs used different systems, but it works for most.

Winchesters made after the 1960's have no on line data that I've ever located. You'll have to go to a bookstore and buy a reference book, or post a partial SN on line and ask someone who has one of the reference books to look it up for you.

- Serial Numbers on Remington Firearms. If you are looking for more information about your particular Remington firearms, then the serial number can give you some useful insight into the date of manufacture of your specific gun. In the picture below, you will see an example from a newer Remington 597 rifle with a manufacturing date of April 2006.
- What year is a Remington wingmaster model 870 with the serial number 35150w? They have date code stamps on the barrel which can be looked up on the manufacture date link on the Remington Society.
- I have a 20' 12ga. 870 Wingmaster made in 1979 (according to the serial number). It has been hand etched for the Georgia State Patrol so I suppose that at one time this was a patrol car gun. I got it from a Sporting Goods store here in Oregon back in 1990 when they bought a batch of used shotguns and put them on sale.
