Re: Slotted screw head imprint over serial #
The symbol is super likely the assembler. Due to the limited space and the fact that the date code letters are stamped separately, the assembler and year date letter overlapped.

Re: looking for info on a model 700 222 cal number 7825
April or May, 1962, the first year of the 700 if 7825 is the serial number! Should have a 20 inch barrel. Should have the letters C or K and K on the barrel ahead of where the serial number is.

Re: 721 year of manufacture
Looks like September, 1950 going by the serial number.

Re: Remington 700
The serial number puts it late 1978. Should have a barrel code of D or E Q.

Re: Info on model 600
Unsure what you are asking. M600s have silver bolt handles. 660s and Mohawk 600s have blued handles(no rib on barrel). Need a better description. Your dating seems off. On the barrel ahead of the serial number is the date code. 2 letters closest to the recoil lug, same font, stamped separately in ...

Yes, that would be the inspectors "mark", unique to them.

Re: Remington 721 Identification Challenge
April 1951 lines up with both the barrel date code and the serial number.

Re: Info on Model 7400 carbine-280rem
Nice. Keep that box. I find it odd the order number is so vastly different from the standard numbers. Seems to be dated Oct, 2001 but follows the 2002 5 digit order numbers. Is the build date stamped on the barrel?

Re: Dating my 25-20
The right side are all standard markings for Proofing and such. AW on the left side would somewhat line up with the serial number era at March, 1928-which is an anomaly from the serial number dating list I saw, but not off by a lot. The AW is one of really 3 markings on the left. With AW considered ...

Re: Dating my 25-20
One list I see says later 1927. I can see the letters on the LEFT side of the barrel. Down low, slightly obscured. What those say is your date. I see a W I think. May well be 1928. A "U" would confirm my 1927 thoughts

Re: Date on a model 760 .270
As you stated, using clues you provided as in it was your grandfather's and knowing the history of the stampings. Until the late 60s or early 70s, the month and year stamps were separate. Later ones had a 2 character stamp set up that is much cleaner. Then some guessing at the month stamp brought me ...
