I didn’t know that! It’s too bad, because they’re wonderful shotguns. I had heard they discontinued the 800, and had so many requests, that they restarted production. Mine is quite a beautiful piece, probably late Sixties, early Seventies. I’ll have to check the serial number. All I can say is that my scores rose immediately upon first use.
SKB USA may not have records on when yours was made, but they do carry parts if you need them (not likely the way these were made)
