I am Looking for a source for information on determining the manufacture date of an older Merkel shotgun Model 200E, 16 ga, Serial # 32209. The fellow I bought it from told me that it was purchased new in Austria in 1952 or 53. I believe it to be an East Germain Merkel. Hope someone can help.
Thanks!
