Terry-
According to the Red Book 10776 62’s were built in 1932, first year of production. Red Book also states that production began in March of that year so in the absence of records from CFM on this rifle you could estimate it was built in March or April, May at the latest.

Thanks, Ray. Just did a quick re-read of Schwing’s second volume a few days ago. I’d already forgotten about the receiver date table on page 191-193.

I also have another early model 62 #6533 would that one fall in the same month? terry
No, it would not. Per Ned Schwing’s published information, 6533 was manufactured in June 1932 (see the table below).
