. Some M&P guns were built from unused Ducks Unlimited Trade Model receivers and had a DU serial number. The mark HG indicated registration with the BATF. Regular M37 serial numbers apply within this range. Approximately 67 King Ferry Models were made. The regular Model 87 serial number also appears on the receiver. Running a gun serial number search is essential if you’re looking to buy a used gun from an individual or a dealer. While it is illegal for dealers to sell guns that have been lost, stolen or used in a crime and wanted by the police, it can happen. Private-party sales of stolen guns are also uncommon, but can occur. Browse through our online catalog of firearms available in the USA, including handguns, shotguns, rifles and premium firearms. Find out why Beretta is considered the most reliable firearm available. Research Beretta's concealed carry handguns, sporting clays, duck hunting and upland shotguns.

Now you can date your Browning firearm. The serial number found on your gun has the answer. This area will help you read that serial number.
To find your serial number, you will need to refer to your owner's manual. We have most owner's manuals online.
While every effort has been made to ensure that the information provided on serial numbers and dates of manufacture are accurate, records on early production models such as the Auto-5 and Superposed shotguns were not included due to the complexity of numbers, models and grades offered. Also, there have been unique limited edition models that did not follow our regular serial number configurations and they are not included in this listing.
