Mossberg 500 serial number

[John Peddie]

Bought a new to me Mossberg 500, in camo.

Can't find serial number, even with magnifying glass (70 + year old eyes, you know).

Camo coat seems to obscure all stamped info.

Where should it be?

Thanks.

Thanks. I'll pull it out of the safe and check there.
