I bought this 1894c in either 2008 or 2009. It was bought online, new in the box. It's serial number starts with 92, so I assume it was made in 2008. Once I learned about the JM stamp, I checked, didn't see it, and never thought about it again, because the rifle shoots well, and has a good fit and finish, so I never cared one way or the other. However, I had it out today and the light caught it just the right way and I thought it looked like a lightly stamped, impartial JM. It's in the right place, and from what I understand, the Remlins have REP stamped on them, and the serial numbers start with letters rather than numbers. So, is this actually a JM model then?
