Consult the Blue Book of Fireams Values. Every place that sells guns will have a copy. Tell them you need to know for insurance purposes - so you get full replacement value and not trade in value.

Remington Year of Manufacture Codes maybe found on the barrel of your Remington rifle [or shotgun] on the left side, just forward of the receiver; the first letter of the Code is the month of manufacture, followed by one or two letters which are the year of manufacture. For shotguns with removeable barrels, the code will be valid for the manufacture of the barrel; maybe for the receiver, as barrels do get switched around.
According to the "Blue Book of Gun Values", the coding continues as follows:
Month Codes: [first letter]
B - L - A - C - K - P - O - W - D - E - R - X
1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8 - 9 - 10 - 11 - 12

* the years 1943 though 1953 had double letters: ie, MM = 1943
As maybe seen, the year code letters duplicate; some knowledge of when the model was introduced should resolve the actual year of manufacture.
Remington owners: COPY this table to your Hard Drive......! !

SOURCE: i have a remington 22 cal model 12 serial number 187554 and would like to know the manufacture date
Introduction Year:1909
Year Discontinued:1936
Remingtons manufactured between 1921 and 1972 have a code located on the left side of the barrel near the frame that identifies the year and month of manufacture.
If yours is between 1921 and 1936, it should have two letters, one for month, and one for year.
If it doesn't have this code, it was made between 1909 and 1920.
REMINGTON Customer Service (1-800-243-9700 & follow the prompts) will look up your serial number and verify the age of your firearm.
Just to give some scope, serial number 757132 was 1929, about 569578 after yours.
