The Remington 788 is a bolt-action, centerfire rifle that was made by Remington Arms from 1967 to 1983. The rifle’s serial number is located where the barrel meets the receiver (for a right handed rifle, the serial number is located on a user’s left, and for a left handed rifle, the serial number is located on a user’s right). Where is the serial number on a Remington 700?

The anchor shown here with the date code is just a symbol, as many different inspector marks will be seen With the whole list shown here ONLY if it had been returned for repairs Stamped on LH top rear of barrel, 2 or 3 digit, (month first, year after) these will normally only be the last letters as seen below, Then if the gun is ever subsequently returned to a warranty center or the factory by ANYONE, they will refuse to work on it as an unsafe firearm. If a gun is returned to the factory as a fire damaged, or blown up firearm, the factory will stamp it as a prefix to their date code with a #4 on the barrel and return it un-repaired.
