I just picked up a Type 56S from Bullitt3401 and
I would like to get a fix on the year it was made.

Notable markings:





SILE N.Y  N.Y.



The bolt is not blued.

Thanks

I have one exactly like it NIB.  I was wondering the same.  I am guessing late 80's time frame.

From Indykid @ theakforum.net: the Sile imports were imported in the mid to latter 1980s, with most coming in during 1988 and 1989.
