Is there a particular place to search for build dates, etc for rugers by serial number. I just bought a used Blackhawk and am curious to kn ow the exact age of it.
Thanks
I am trying to find the manufacture date for a Ruger model M77 30.06 -- serial number is 7984870. I have tried several sites including the Ruger website with no luck. If anyone could point me in the right direction I would appreciate it:) 5 following. Production began in 1958. After serial number 999 was produced, Ruger began adding alphabet prefixes to their serial numbers. These guns were known to collector's as 'alphabet Bearcats' and bore serial numbers such as 'C758,' etc. Normal serial numbering resumed at serial number 1,000 in 1969.
That worked perfect. Thanks for the information.
Your welcome..
It is not 100 however. Also, some models might have sat idle for years before they actually shipped.
At least it gives me a general idea as to the age.
need the year of manufacturing : 334 - 76846
Year made
I don t know the year, of manufacturing. That was the reason for the inquiry. The serial number is: 334-76846
Year of manufacturing: 334-76845 fpr a SC9C: Thanks.
