watab kid Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 i have this in my records - All Marlin Qwners:Marlin year of manufacture maybe determined from the following list of letter/numeral prefixs to the serial number; this coding only applies to serialized rifles:1946-C 1947-D 1948-E 1949-F 1950-G 1951-H 1952-J 1953-K 1954-L 1955-M 1956-N 1957-58-R 1958-59-S 1960 (August)-1961-U 1961 (August)-1962-V 1963-W 1964-Y,-Z 1965-AA 1966-AB 1967-AC 1968-AD, -68 1969-69 1970-70 1971-71 1972-72Starting in 1973, the year of manufacture maybe determined by subtracting the first two digits of the serial number from 100:Example: SN 2512345 would have been made in 1975 [100 - 25 = 75].For Marlin Rimfire Rifles [non-serialized]:From 1962 thru 1968 Marlins rimfire rifles (other than the 39 series lever actions) used a two letter date code that was stamped on the barrel. This date code is different than the one already listed, as Marlin rimfire rifles (other than the model 39 series) did not have a serial numbers until required to by Law after 1968. The first letter of the date code represented the month of manufacture while the second letter indicated the year. This date code was usually stamped on the left side of the barrel just in front of the receiver. The first letter of the date code is as follows: A = Jan. B = Feb. C = Mar. D = Apr. E = May F = June G = July H = Aug. I = Sep. J = Oct. K = Nov. L = Dec. The second letter of the date code is as follows: F = 1962 G = 1963 H = 1964 I = 1965 J = 1966 K = 1967 L = 1968So a date code of "JK" would indicate that rifle was made in October of 1967. The above "codes" provided by RFC User "plinker Tom". Marlin owners: SAVE this table to your hard drive...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
