Can anyone tell me the model and manufacture date of a Mossberg .410 shotgun. The serial number is 506124.

The Model # is stamped right on the barrel...what does it say?

As far as the date, 1968 or later is as close as you can get. They had no serial numbers before 1968.

Thanks, it's a model 183T.

I was able to thin it down a little.

The 183T shows up first in the 1973 catalog and is absent from the 1978 catalog.

But...sometimes catalogs aren't updated to match exactly what was offered.

Here's a link to Mossberg shotgun catalogs.
