There should be some letters on the left-hand side of the barrel which will give the month and year of ing the following link.

So my questions are, can anyone tell me what year this would be from approximatly, and also what version of the Model 12 it is, I have seen online that there were many different varieties of the 12 made. and if it helps, the rifle has a flip up rear sight. The Serial Number is RW 519042 I think, I found that on the bottom of the reciever. On the side of the reciever it says Gallery Special, has a crescent buttplate, and what I guess should be called a semi pistol grip, the only other things I can say about it is that behind the trigger guard is stamped Remington UMC Trademark, and that is stamped on the buttplate as well. it has an octagonal barrel, longer than 20 inches (Approximatly 24 inches with threading), on the top of the barrel in front of the reciever it is stamped Remington Trademark 22 Short LW MAGNUM (ALSO INCLUDES M/1100 “LT”)ġ964 TO APPROX.I have a Remington pump action rifle, from what i have been able to find out, it is a model 12, that is about all I know, I want to find out what year it was made and what make of the model 12 it is. “LIGHT WEIGHT” (“LW”) (ALSO INCLUDES M/1100 “LT”) Does anyone know if that is correct?

They continued to mark the date code on the end flap of the shipping box. (*) On 8/9/99, stopped stamping the barrels with the date code. One needs to be sure that the barrel is original to the gun before trusting the Barrel Code listing, above. Using these barrel codes to date a shotgun is somewhat unreliable, as shotgun barrels are often interchanged at random. Using barrel codes (such as those listed above) to date the manufacture are reliable on Remington rifles, as the company rarely changed barrels on a customer's rifle. The following letters correspond to the months of the yearī - L - A - C - K - P - O - W - D - E - R - Xġ - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8 - 9 - 10 - 11 - 12 Remington's manufactured after 1921 have a code located on the left side of the barrel near the frame that identifies the year and month of manufacture.
