A Model 25 followed me home this weekend. By my (rescue gun) standards this one is in very good condition and the added bonus of having a modified choke instead of the full choke that I so often encounter in these pre-1960 guns I favor.

It has a 4 digit serial number; 59XX range. Can't seem to find the Model 25 date of manufacture listed anywhere. Since they were only made ~1949 to 1954 and total production somewhere in the 80,000 number, I have to guesstimate that this is a first year of production.



Anybody have a date of manufacture list for this model?

Good guess, never seen a serial number listing for the Model 25.
