Redman, if there isn't a letter prefix to the serial number, it was made before 1968. The V serial suffix indicates Standard Frame, 2.75'. 'IF' Remington answers the phone, they can tell you by the serial number, and sometimes they get it right. Seems if they can tell you over the phone, there should be a database somewhere, but I have yet to. The L Prefix started in 68 and thru 74 (I think) The 'L' pre-fix first letter code for Remington 1100 after the 1968 Gun Control Act. That would date 1100's from 1969 thru 1973/74 then the next letter code was 'M'. Those early 1100's were just outstanding, owned a few, they took America by storm along with the 870 Wingmaster.
I apologize because I'm sure this has been asked a lot.I'm confused as to how to date this gun. I used to know a lot about guns and hunted all the time with my father, he fell ill some five years ago and passed away, before then he just randomly gave me this gun and gave the rest of them to my stupid brother I guess he figured the 1100 would be a good gurly gun and I used to shoot skeet with my little gurly 410.
Remington Model 4 Serial Numbers
What I know it's a 12 gauge, 2 3/4 with a full ribbed barrel. I'm unsure as to how you get the exact length of the barrel. If I pull it out it measures at 33in.What I'd like to know is how old it is. I know my father purchased it before 1980.
The receiver has the serial 491**V, I understand V to mean 12 gauge. There aren't any prefix codes to the serial.
The barrel has the code AFKI or AFK1, I'm unsure as the stamping is messy.
If no one can help me that's fine, as soon as I register it I can take it to a gunsmith, there's a little broken clip that causes it to jam if you attempt to eject a shell. Because of this I've been holding onto it for the past 6 years and haven't tried shooting it as I'd be concerned it was unsafe but now my daughter is too big for the 410 and wants to shoot something bigger. As I remember this was a nice ladies gun with a minimal kick but it's been over 20 years since I shot it at the local turkey shoot, still don't need any turkeys.
