I have a Sportsmaster 512 that my Dad bought right after WWII, 3 letter code of "ARR".
I would like to know when this gun was made and also I can not find any numbers on the
barrel that resemble a serial number. The only number I can find on the gun is right above the stock on the right side of the barrel, number 16. Is this the serial number?

Re: Sportsmaster 512
If the Sportsmaster you're talking about is a .22cal. I don't believe they started putting patent numbers on them until about 1906. I have a 510 Targetmaster and it doesn't have a patent date. I hope this is of some help.

Re: Sportsmaster 512
Your 512 was made March 1946. It was made before serial no. were required to be put on 22 rifles. Sorry for the delay. I just realized you sent me a private message with this question.
