[QUOTE="mtnboomer, post: 2591739, member: 32439"] I have a Remington model 552 Speedmaster semi-auto that my dad bought me in 1974 from OTASCO in Chandler to replace the .22 I lost when our house burned. Sorry, no pictures yet as it's in pieces on my bench being cleaned and the stocks refinished. It was used when I got it and I never checked to see how old it was until I took it apart. It doesn't have a serial number so I knew it was made before 1968, but it has a "DD" date code. On looking up the codes I found Remington has use the "D" year code three times - 1935, 1957 and 1983. The other "D" means it was built in November. My rifle was built on November 1957 - [I]the first year of production![/I] It's actually 8 months older than [I]ME![/I] [/QUOTE]
