Hello
Can anyone help me date this carbine by its serial number.
Is there a list showing dates of manufacture?
thank you

added "the company began to market the first El Tigre rifles in 1923." I'm thinking the earlier rifles were Tigre, but is wiki so you should do more research.
On stamp on the underside of the stock, but cannot see it clearly.
Serial # starts with an A Possibly pre 1920
thanks for your input
"DOM list, but the A prefix started in 1927"
that is good enough for me and do appreciate your input and help -again- ?
ps: I also found the info a little sketchy on these little beauties ??
