I have a Remington double barrel shotgun with trigger hammer and I need a stock made for serial # 216158 thank you

Write to Remington and tell them you want to know when it was made or left the factory. Start by mailing or calling them here:

Remington Arms Company, LLC 870 Remington Drive P.O. Box 700 Madison, NC 27025-0700 TEL: 1-800-243-9700 Fax: 1-336-548-7801

This sounds like a bad trigger spring, I suggest taking it to local gunshop

Could be 1897 or 1997, best way to find out for sure is visit local gunshop with serial number, they have the "big" book of number.

Do you know what model it is?

Beings it's a .22, I'm thinking it's a Model 4, but usually those were a 22 1/2" barrel length.

1890-1933
Total production - approximately 356,000

If it's a "take-down" model, it COULD be a Model 6.

1901 - 1933
Numbers 00001 - 498,000



As far as serial numbers, a lot of them had the serial number on the side of the top tang, visible only with the action out of the stock.
Not all Remington serial numbers were consectutive for the model.
Military models were often numbered by the contract and commercial guns marked with batch numbers having little relationship to the time of manufacture.

Dear Armstrong.

GO to the NRA serialization document's offered in the following link. It offers a variety of weapons manufacturers with detailed coding in a chart line item method. Here is the link. http://www.nramuseum.org/media/940941/serialization-date%20of%20manufacture.pdf .


Along with that is offered a sample of the stamping of information on the barrel for your convenience.

Fare. Well.

S - 19258-August.
Year is 1925 confirm.
If you want to be more specific and want to know more details. on the month you can call.
You can call Remington at 1-800-243-9700 and go thru the menu selection. One of the menu options is to request information on your Remington based off the serial number. You read off your serial number and the guy looks up in the database the year the gun was made and what the original barrel was for that gun (if gun had barrel options like shotguns do).

post a comment for further assistance.
Thank you for using fixya have a nice day:-)
