Age of a Stevens 416?

[Guest Joey]

I'm trying to determine the age of my gradpa's Stevens 416 .22lr. I'm looking for a website that will tell me the age of the gun based on the serial number. I've tried google but had no luck. Can anyone help me out?

Also, there should be a sticky thread with links that provide info on determining the age of a firearm. I've found a few sites that tell you the manufacture date of certain firearms but it would be cool if someone made a thread of all such sites.

I looked it up in a old Gun Trader's Guide and it gave the years 1937 - 1949. You might try www.rimfirecentral.com
