870 police magnum manufacture date help

Post by Mbeerie83 »

I just bought a Remington 870 leo trade-in police magnum but the barrel letters indicate 3 possible dates of manufacture!

Magnaflux letter= “C” in a triangle
Material ID= “7J” in a square
Final inspector stamp= X
Two letter month/year= BO
Final assembler code= 64
Barrel= IMP CYL
Test code= B
Receiver serial # = B6328**M

-is there anyway to narrow it down with the above information I included from all the barrel markings and most of the receiver serial number? :| judging from the BO marking alone on the barrel it could be January of either 1977, 1994, or 2021. I would like a definitive answer as to which actual year is the real year of manufacture! Can anyone please help a brother out?

To determine the exact year, you should compare it with other codes on the barrel and body of the gun to find more information.
