1889 Remington Assistance.....

As far as dating these guns, all I could find is that the serial number range leapt into the 200000 bracket sometime after 1900. Mine is 229018. Would the approximate date of manufacture be a result of an extrapolation process?

According to the serial number chronology in the late Charles Semmer's book, Remington Double Shotguns, serial number 229018 would be a 1902 gun. The chronology was compiled from surviving factory shipping records.
