Remington model 572 Type pump-action rifle Place of origin United States Production history Designed 1954 Manufacturer Produced 1954 Specifications Weight 5 lbs length 21 in (530 mm) Crew rifling twist rate = 1 in 16, Feed system, 15 to 22 rounds, depending on cartridge The Remington Model 572 is a pump-action rifle manufactured by the. It is noted for its similarity to the shotgun in design.
It is chambered for the, and cartridges. Ammunition is supplied by a tubular magazine under the barrel which holds 15-22 rounds depending on the cartridge used. The longevity of manufacture speaks well of the popularity and durability of the action, and the overall reliability of this gun. It is popular with 'plinkers' and collectors both, along with being a good small game, or 'camp' rifle. History and design The Remington 572 was introduced in 1954 as a successor to the as the M572A having the look and feel of the Remigton 870 shotgun. Weighing in at 5 lbs., the rifle is a 'hammerless' style, meaning the hammer is contained within the action and ejection is through the side as opposed to the 'through the top' design of the Model 121. This allows the top of the receiver to be grooved for scope mounting and keeps spent brass from hitting the shooter's face.
A lightweight version known as the 'Fieldmaster' was introduced in 1957. Remington was able to shave 1 pound from the total weight of the M572A by using aluminium to manufacture the receiver, trigger guard, buttplate, and barrel (although the barrel incorporated a steel insert). With its sungrain walnut stock and forend on the M572 and M572 Fieldmaster; the rifle was available in three other color schemes: 'Crow-wing Black'(CWB), 'Buckskin Tan'(BT), and 'Teal-wing Blue'(TWB). These abbreviations served as a suffix to the model number. The M572TWB was discontinued in 1960 and the M572BT and M572CWB were last offered in 1962. The Fieldmaster is still in production.

Remington Barrel Date Code FIREARMS INFORMATION Remington never (.) used serial numbers to identify the date of manufacture of it's firearms, they however stamped a date code (spelled out below) by the first letter meaning the month and the last letter the year of manufacture. BARREL DATE CODE - stamped exposed on LH top rear of barrel after 1920 the following will only be stamped where applicable #2 Part order barrel (not originally assembled to firearm) #3 Service section received #4 Return as received #5 Employee sale R.E.P. On the RH side of the barrel will be a Magnaflux, Remington proof & a test mark If a gun is returned to the factory as a fire damaged, or blown up firearm, the factory will stamp it as a prefix to their date code with a #4 on the barrel and return it un-repaired. Then if the gun is ever subsequently returned to a warranty center or the factory by ANYONE, they will refuse to work on it as an unsafe firearm. REMINGTON MANUFACTURING DATE CODE stamped on LH top rear of barrel, 2 or 3 digit, (month first, year after) these will normally only be the last letters as seen below, with the whole list shown here ONLY if it had been returned for repairs The anchor shown here with the date code is just a symbol, as many different inspector marks will be seen The above information was taken from Remington's own information sheet, so if your gun may not conform, then I am also at a loss in explaining.
Remington 572 Fieldmaster Owner's Manual
The factory says all barrels are date code stamped, well I have found some that are not, or if they are, are so erratic stamping that trying to decipher them is impossible. The photos below may help a bit. Both were taken off Remington 760s, with the one on the left, a 30-06 that I bought new October 10, 1954. This has been rebored to a 35 Whelen Improved. The one on the right again a 30-06, but with a shorter barrel that I made into a knock around quad rifle with pivot mounts. Here the R represents November, & the ZZ would be 1953.
The fourth digit being a 3 is inconsequential being an assembly number. There is no inspector mark on this side. Here the first (LH) mark is the final inspector mark, the O represents July, the R would be 1968. And the F again being an assembly number.

Was trying to figure out when it was manufactured but without the numbers I can't use the Remington ID. Chart to find year of manufacture. This rifle has a alloy action and aluminum barrel, copper in color and sleeved rifling. The tube underneath is chrome and holds 18 shells. It looks almost new in condition and a nice shooting light pump.22 rifle.The grain of the wood in the stock resembles walnut but is blond in color( maybe bleached).Anyway I was wondering if anyone know's of a way to date the year of manufacture on this no number rifle.
There should be a pair on letters on he breech end of the barrel, left side. There is a chart that breaks down that code to a month and year. Started in 1921 and was used untill very recently, then reinatated. I will find my link to that chart and post it for you. No serial just means before 1968, in general. Heres the link, lots of other good info on this site also Oh, and you need to know an approx.
Period as well, you are looking at 1950 to 1968, that model eplaced the Rem 121 in early 50s.

I have an old Remington 12 guage pump shotgun that was given to me, handed down from my grandfather. It looks to have had leather on the pump and on the top of the barrel, it has 'IRemington Arms Co, Ilion NY USA', next line says 'Patents Feb 3, 1903, May 15, 1905. It is a bottom eject and on the bottom where it ejects, has what looks like the letter 'U' and then below that the numbers '14240' and below that what looks like the number '16'.
It's in pretty sad shape, but I'm wondering what model it is and if it's worth restoring or should it just be a Wall Hanger?? Remington Owners, Remington Year of Manufacture Codes maybe found on the barrel of your Remington rifle or shotgun on the left side, just forward of the receiver; the first letter of the Code is the month of manufacture, followed by one or two letters which are the year of manufacture. For shotguns with removeable barrels, the code will be valid for the manufacture of the barrel; maybe for the receiver, as barrels do get switched around. Hello everyone I am new here but hope you can help me figure out the serial number on my Remington 700 custom build. Naturally I don't have the barrel date because I have a custom barrel but what is really weird is my serial number doesn't go along with any format I have seen here nor will it work in the 'Remington Automatic Lookup' because my although serial number is 8 digits it does not start with 2 letters.it only has one and it is a 'G', which is not even in BLACKPOWDERX so I am TOTALLY confused.
Here is my S/N - G66099XX Can someone please help me figure this one out? Thanks Much!!
BLACKPOWDERX is not a part of the serial number, it is hand stamped on the barrel. Not doubting you, but 'G' is commonly used with Winchester brand Model 70's. I'm not sure if Remington has the 'G' prefix. Thanks for your reply and please don't think I am trying to be a jerk in any way when I say this but I know of at least one Remington 700 short action that has a 'G' prefix in the serial number.because it is on my custom Tac-Ops Echo 51 rifle.
But, I thought it was kind of strange too when I couldn't get it to work in that 'Remington Automatic Lookup' and as far as the BLACKPOWDERX, I apologize I guess I misunderstood how it works. I thougt you used the first digit/letter in the serial number to plug into the BLACKPOWDERX to get the month of manufacture. I will try to add a couple of photos for you. Sorry, all I had was my phone camera so they are not very clear so hopefully you can make it out but I promise that first digit is a 'G' in the serial number in the second photo and I even double checked it after you said that because I was already really wondering why it would not show up when I plugged it in on that 'Remington Automatic Lookup' so now I am REALLY confused and wondering what the heck is going on. And as you can also see in the first one it is stamped 'Remington Model 700'. Thanks again! If you have the original barrel, try to locate the date code.
It should be near the receiver, and hand stamped. IIRC, about 10% of the guns are not stamped. Yeah, Remington's serial number search system sucks. I don't have the original barrel and to be honest I don't know if it actually came as a barreled action originally because I am assuming Mike just buys the actions from Remington because they are totally custom built rifles and he uses all custom barrels, stocks, etc.
Except for the Reminton action and the original style triggers which he totally reworks both of these into something ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!!! In fact, this action is now smoother than ANY of the custom actions I have ever owned on my competition rifles or have ever seen on ANY custom action. I used to think the stock Remington action were pretty decent for production actions but after gettting this rifle and seeing /feeling just how AMAZING they can really be I would take this Remington 700 action over any 5 custom actions. It is truly that good when he gets done with them. Anyway, sorry, I didn't mean to get side-tracked there and there was actually a reason I brought that up and it is because I was just wondering if Remington actually produces some of the 700 actions wiith no intentions of ever becoming a barreled action, at least not within the stock Remingtons but instead they do sell them to custom builders as just an action, as Savage sells their target actions??

Was just thinking maybe if they did or still do, maybe these actions get a completely different serial number prefix, kind of like different manufacturers do on their TALO models or 'Distributor Exclusive' models? Don't have any idea.just thinking out loud. Just makes me want to know even more now than before.LOL. Thanks again for your help. I think there were G-prefix guns in '05 thru '08, but I'm not sure of the beginning and ending dates. Well.that would probably be it then because, although I am not sure exactly when he started the build of my rifle because I actually bought it slightly used from the original owner, I do know it would have been within that timeframe as I am thinking he actually took possession of it sometimes in 2009.
But, I don't know exactly how long it takes from the time he starts a build until he finishes it and I don't know if he builds every rifle from start to finish before starting the next one or if he builds in small batches, say starting 5 rifles and completing each component/build stage for all 5 rifles before moving to the next component/build stage. It would make more sense to me he would do the latter but then again, I am not a custom rifle builder. But, if that is the case he very likely started the rifle in 2008 because I know for a fact he does not build a large quantity each year, which is one reason it takes 2+ years to get it once you pay your deposite. He may have also even had the action well before that so this would definitely put it in the timeframe you mentioned. I was reading where you can call Remington direct with your S/N and they will tell you when it was built so I may try to find that number and call them to just see what they can tell me. If I get through and have any luck I will post it. Thanks again!
I think there were G-prefix guns in '05 thru '08, but I'm not sure of the beginning and ending dates. You hit the nail right on the head Mainspring and I must say that Remington sure makes that process VERY, VERY quick and painless!!
NO being on hold.NO pushing 2 for English.NO B.S.!!! Just dial 1-800-243-9700.push 7 for historic information or age of firearm.push 2 for age of firearm.polite lady answers, looks up my S/N and within seconds I found out the year of manufacture for my action/rifle was 2006!!! Thanks again for your help with this and hopefully this will make it a little easier for someone else out there who may have a firearm like mine that doesn't fall into the norm.
