Ruger is like alot of other makers nowadays, you ring them up(800#?) and talk to the right person, based on how you ask and present yourself to the operator, and you can find out easily from them what year a gun was made. Further details cost money from several companies, though. Shortcut to a long net search sometimes but don't disregard the net either. I have called Ruger before and given a serial number and boom get the year. And also I think of other questions that are best answered by the makers, not someone passing thru a forum.
