I've seen the Remington tables with the serial number blocks, but maybe I'm just that stupid that they don't make sense to me. My gun has two sets of markings, and I'm reading that the serial number alone isn't that accurate. So first, it has an "infinity" symbol, like an 8 on it's side, followed by XX, then a 63. The serial number, is 616xxxx.
So if I go by the Serial number Blocks, it doesn't exist. They tell me 1967 ends at 068460. They say that 1968 begins at 6200000.
If I go by the XX, then the rifle was made in Dec. of 1963. Only problem is, this is a Remington 788, and wasn't made until 1967. Can anyone verify that I'm missing something, and just an idiot? Or is there some other code I haven't deciphered yet?
Thanks in advance
