Sure-Shot,

From the NEF/H&R Centerfire Rifle FAQ:

 http://www.graybeardoutdoors.com/smf/index.php/topic,26264.0.html

It looks like it was maded in 1940!

With the "A" prefix, looks like it was manufactured in 1940.

Go to the third post in this thread (FAQ's).

[EDIT] Froghunter beat me to your answer while I was checking out the new spelling cow/spellcheck feature. I guess they want us to learn how to spell now, what next? ;)

I've never actually dated a shotgun before but have flirted with a few and have dated a few gals over the years before I got married that didn't look nearly as well as some of the shotguns that have come home with me.  :o
