Serial# date check on Colt Gold Cup S70?

[xmanpike]

I recently bought a Gold Cup National Match serial # 70N763XX

Can anyone tell me the date of manufacture?

Thanks

The lists I've seen end with this statement:

"Serial numbers higher than 70N40401 were made after 1976."

 

[xmanpike]

Yeah, thats all I can come up with too

Your Gold Cup was made in 1979.

Yes! That's what I had hoped. That's my birth year! Thank you for confirming Bannockburn!
