Hello all.
I have a Remington Nylon 66 that I am trying to determine the date of production on. The letter code of the barrel shows that it is either Oct. 1964 or Feb 1973. I know that 66's built before 1968 have no serial number. My question is: Where would I find the serial number on a 66? I've taken off the barrel and receiver cover and the barrel is not stamped with anything that resembles a SN and the only number I can find is printed, not stamped, on the left side of the plastic stock/reciever housing in yellow ink. Is this the SN or is this a pre '68 production? Do I need to further disassemble a 66 to find a SN?
Thanks for any help. It'll be interesting (to me anyway) if this .22 turns out to be older than me and is in better shape.
