Remington Barrel Dating

[OldCorps]

I have a Remington 40X with a 3 letter dating stamp. The Remington customer service rep. could not be sure what the date was. It is stamped with "D" "E" "F". Too many letters ?????

September of 1958. Ignore the last cymbal, it is an assembly code. Wayne

A call to the Rem Custom Shop in Ilion NY,not headquarters/customer service in NC, will eliminated all doubt when it was barreled,who barreled it & what the chambering was when it left Ilion.
