Stevens Savage Arms 530A 410

[Fogglebag]

Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone knows how to date a 410 double barrel.
It is a Stevens Savage arms
Model 530A
All the parts have the same markings of I J A
And the A has a circle around it.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Try looking here:

STEVENS DATE CODE

Thinking those SxS were made mid 30's into the 50's. If no date code is found based on the link @Speedo66 posted, then you'll know it was made prior to 1949. May not be able to narrow it down further, but its certainly an antique. A nice one, at that.

It looks like a great little sporter.
I really like .410s. Fun to shoot and cheap to reload.
Good luck on dating it.....?....?
Well. You know what I meant!
