Just guessing without researching my references, but believe it would have been from 1902 production; and that's my guess because Hunter began to assign 6-digit serial numbers to ejector guns in 1903.

Thanks for the feed back. Dr Jim checked the records and it most likely is a OOE gun,there are duplicate ser's in those numbers.MY
