tractorboy Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 is there a way of finding out how old a gun is from the serial number ? cheers tb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HW682 Posted July 25, 2009 Report Share Posted July 25, 2009 The answer is probably yes. If you give a few more details, someone will probably know the answer. If it something like a modern Berreta, the date code is given by letters which you can look up on the internet. Other options could be to contact the manufacturer/importer if they are still around.

Gordon R Posted July 25, 2009 Report Share Posted July 25, 2009 Beretta, Browning, Miroku - nice and easy. Others - not so easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
