Remington Model 4 & 6. First and last serial number of each Year. First serial number is A4000000.
The guns had a simple serial code system, which started with 001 and went to 275,600. The serial number on all guns made was preceded by the letter U. According to the Remington Society of America barrel date codes were used starting in 1921. This means that only later guns would have a date, specifically in the last 8 years of production.

Your WUU (Aug1949) with a 122xxx serial lends weight to Literalist's direction that my 31 was also made in 1947 but was reworked by Remington (the 3 near ZZ) and re-blued. He also suggests my barrel may have been from a 1953 gun BZZ (Jan1953) before it was reworked, hence the second BZZ stamp on it.
