Hi I just got a model 81 in excellent condition , I'm just curious when it was made.
Serial number is: 1863x and there is a KK onthe barrel jacket. Can anyone help?? thanks from this Old CANUCK! Jim |

Jim,
Using 'BLACKPOWDERX', I come up with May of 1941. The 'K' repeats itself in 1963. Now if I could recall when the 740 Woodsmasters took the 81's place, I think before '63 though. That gun is the Northern deerhunters dream! Close behind it is the 141 pump which is what I carry out here in Western Oregon. My best guess, JT |
