What is age of Glenfield Model 60 22 caliber serial 25252810?

Answer

the first two digits of the serial number indicate the year of manufacture. say the serial number starts with 18... The 18 is significant, for subtracting it from 2000 gives the date of manufacture for the rifle, 1982. Likewise, a serial number starting with 17 would be a rifle manufactured in 1983.

This method has not been uniformly followed. It is valid only from 1971 through 1999. Prior to 1971, the first two digits indicated the year of manufacture. For example, a rifle with a serial number starting with 70... would have been made in 1970. Starting in 2000, this same old method has returned; the first two digits once more indicate the year of manufacture directly, with no subtraction required

So your glenfield with the 25 serial number is a 1975 model. i have a 1978 edition that i love. also if your wandering why i put marlin the glenfiels is a knockoff of the marlin 60 it was just a brand used fro the massmarketers like sears& roebuck, k mart, etc.
