Re: manufacture year of a Remington Elliot 4 Barrell Derring

They made about 25,000 4 barrels, I've never seen a serial over 25K but many in the 24k range, I believe then also only made around 15K of the 22 barrel also never seen a serial higher then 15K. What's also interesting is there are two different frames for the 4 barrel, not sure why I'm guessing when they stopped the 22 due to the demand for the larger round they also decided to save some steel and it has a lower frame. Best I can tell it happened on the 4 barrel somewhere around 18,000 that's the closest I've ever been to narrowing it down.
