Mike,
The listed (documented) production total for the Model 25 was 87,937. The first batch were sent to the warehouse in March, 1949, and it was discontinued in December 1954. I suspect that your Model 25 was manufactured in late 1953. It should have a 2-digit year number stamped on the bottom of the barrel near the receiver that will tell you when the barrel was manufactured and provide a clue as to when the gun was assembled.

It was hidden deep, but I think I found an angle to get a peek at the top portion of a “5” and just the peak of the top of a “4”.
Here’s a link to some pictures I took of the shotgun.
