Brian, from reading his initial post, he doesn't know the serial number. I can only look up information by serial number, nothing else. Even if I had the serial number, chances are that it was sold to a hardware store or large sporting goods stores for resale in their stores.
He asked if the serial number would indicate month and year of manufacture. It would tell us the month and year by looking at the order book or stock book dates but again, I need the serial number. Krieghoff and possibly other gun manufactures would have a code that after looking at the serial number would give you the year of manufacture.
Wish I could help more. Knowing about our ancestors guns is important to many of us.
