Browning .22 T bolt

Question
I was just reading one of the entries to you about the Browning .22 T-bolt Made in Belgium. I have one serial # 2376x5 Does this mean that it is made the first year it was put out? Would it make any difference in its worth?

Answer
Lisa,

It is the first year production (1965) which will help the value. Condition means everything to a collector, but the first year will make it worth a little more. Many collectors look for the first year production in everything. Hope this helps.
