My serial number is H-20488. Could you send me the link for the serial numbers. Thank youSteveW wrote:For the post 71 guns, simply subtract the first 2 digits of the serial # from 100 to arrive at YOM. I believe there's a link to the letter prefixes but I don't use it, having them committed to memory. If you have a letter prefix rifle, you can post here for a quick reply. SW

golden 39A
I have a Golden 39A and the serial numbers are all numbers and no letters. Can anyone give me an idea on what year it might be.
