Some people are under the belief that all one has to do is “subtract the first two digits of the serial number from 2000 and that is the year of manufacture”. This is only partially true. In order to find the year of manufacture one needs to know the **first two character’s** of the serial number as a minimum, either letters, numbers, or a letter number combination. ![]() In addition to the first two characters of the serial number, it’s also imperative in many cases to know the model number. The serial number, depending on the model of rifle, will be located in one of the following places: • on the upper tang • on the lower stock tang • at the bottom of the receiver • on the side of the receiver Below are the manufacturing date codes, which are the first one or two characters of the serial number.

Please note this list is NOT INCLUSIVE of all Marlin firearms. Only those manufactured from 1941 through 2011 which have serial numbers on them and with the caveat mentioned elsewhere in this blog. If you have a question about the date of manufacture of a Marlin outside these dates, or from reading the blog it is still not clear when your specific rifle was made, then the best alternative is to either: • Post your question in the general Marlin section of GVB. And / or • Contact Marlin Customer Service. Which can be done here: EXAMPLES for reading dates of manufacture: • If your rifle has the single letter “V” serial number prefix, that indicates a 1962 year of manufacture. • Letters “AC” = 1967 • Numbers “24” = 1976. (Notice there are no “I”, “O”, or “Q” serial number prefixes in use. Too confusing with the number 1, and 0 ) LETTER/NUMBER PREFIX DATE OF MANUFACTURE B 1941 – No commercial manufacture from sometime in 1941/’42 until 1945, due to WWII production & retooling. C 1945 c (not capital C) 1946 D 1947 E 1948 F 1949 G 1950 H 1951 J 1952 K 1953 L 1954 M 1955 N 1956 P 1957 R 1958 S 1959 T 1960 U 1961 V 1962 W 1963 Y 1964 Z 1964 AA 1965 AB 1966 AC 1967 AD EARLY 1968 68 LATE 19 70 19 72 19 26 19 24 19 22 19 20 19 18 19 16 19 14 19 12 19 10 19 08 19 06 19 04 19 02 19 00 20 98 20 96 20 94 20 92 20 90 2010 89 / MR (See note Below) 2011 RANDOM NOTES - Sometime in 2011 the serial number prefix became MR. This was done in conjunction with the sale of Marlin, and subsequent move to the Remington Arms plant in Ilion, NY. Speculation is that once receivers started being manufactured at the Ilion, NY, plant the prefix became MR. ***While potentially not relevant to this specific thread. As of late 2013, a Marlin.22 RF rifle (XT-22 Mag) had a serial number prefix of MM reported and verified. It is unknown as of December 2013 how Marlin (”Remlin”) will continue with their serial numbering convention. It is important to note that some “budget” Marlin Rimfire rifles that were manufactured prior to 1968 did not have a serial number. Many of these had letter “codes” on them that will help ID date of manufacture. See here for these guns. All model 336’s, and all other models of centerfire lever action rifles produced by Marlin, as well as lever action rimfire rifles (39, 39A, etc) made by them will have serial numbers. Marlin made various Limited Edition / House Brand guns. Some of which do not line up with this serial number - date of manufacture convention. One such example are at least some of the OTASCO (Oklahoma Tire and Supply Co) rifles manufactured by Marlin. While these rifles are in essence model 336’s, rebranded under the OTASCO name. Their serial numbering convention was different from what is shown above. Not all Marlin House Brand rifles will vary from the above chart, but some will.
