Hey XRacer
I was wondering if you could date a pair of 870 Wingmasters for me?

Gun #1 9980xxV 12GA
bought set up as a PD patrol cruiser gun, speedfeed stock and forend, 18" cyl barrel

Gun #2 11333xxV 12GA
bought sans barrel, wood stock, old style ribbed forend

Trying to decide which one to "projectize", or if it even matters..

Thanks,
The Daddy

Not that easy rmrdaddy.....as far as I know, there's no published or online list of modern Remington serial #s to manufacture date.

Thanks for the info. I wasn't aware that they couldn't be dated like everything else.
I call the Remington historians in the A.M. and find out.
