This Remington rebarrel of this Quality DH used a set of barrels that must have languished in inventory quite a while. Has the JG in the oval on the left barrel flat and the circle for the steel mark on the right, but no steel type letter.
77716 05.jpg 77716 04.jpg Picture isn't quite good enough to make out the date code. I can see X?3. The rib has no legend. |

Keep the pictures coming if you have example guns on hand!
Has anyone ever seen barrels, even if you don't currently own them, with a post-war date code? By that I mean we're pretty certain it was a barrel replacement, not other repair work. For example, XSS3 (December, 1947). According to the chart post-war codes have a two letter year code. |

Some of the year codes can get confusing on late post war letters. Beginning in 1964 the codes start with L then 1965 iis M and 1966 is N and so on.
