Anyone know how to date a Remington shotgun short of calling Remington? I just picked up a used 870 Express and was wondering when it was made. It isn't a current model because it is pre-"J safety" and doesn't have the magazine tube dimples. It also only says "870 Express" on the reciever unlike the new ones which add "Magnum". It will chamber 3" shells though. It says so on the barrel. The serial number is A0095**M.
Oh and what is the proper way to measure barrel length? Is it from the reciever or from the end of the barrel itself?
Thanks!
