Mossberg Serial Number Lookup: A Comprehensive Guide to Assist You

Mossberg serial number lookup is a challenging task as the location differs depending on the year of manufacture and the model of the firearm. The frame, barrel, near the trigger guard, or on the receiver are locations to find the serial number.

The company does not have an official database. So, we found fragments of data for serial numbers from many sources from firearm owners and put them together in this article.

Let’s take a look at the database, and the location of the serial number!
