cooey manufactured dates

[p14shooter]

Is it even possible to determine the actual manufacture years of cooeys? Did a google search with no luck.

No. You can only go by what model you have and narrow it down to the years said model was produced if you have John Belton's book. There were changes in some models which also would indicate if a gun was an early or later model. What do you have?

I dont have anything yet. Next year is the 50th year one of the clubs I shoot at has been built and I was thinking of trying to get a 50 year old to refinish/tole paint/decorate to give away as a prize if I could get one cheaply enough.

A deco Cooey, or a shootable Cooey?

I might be able to help.

 

[p14shooter]

If you mean a deactivated or unshootable one then that is fine as if I can do what I want to do then probably no one will want to shoot it anyway.

If you are looking for a model that would be about 50 years old, (1963) then you are looking for a single shot model 39 or 750 or the model 60 repeater. The model 750 is a Winchester/Cooey as opposed to the original Cooey. The Winchester/Cooey model 64 (not 64A or B) is the semi auto that came out in 1964.
