Default Question on Box End Label

Bangor Punta era. What is the info on the INS and PKR block for? I'm doing a little research on my 35-1. With a very high SN of 1345xx I'm guessing the gun was made toward the end of the run (1973). Any other educated guess on the ship date would also be appreciated.

I have 135310 which I thought was 1968 but don't have a letter so don't know for sure. Frankly, can't remember where I got the date but that's what is in my notes.

Should be the latter part of 1969. Run it by Roy in the Ship Date section of the forum.

Most likely May/June time frame 1969. Do a ship date request on the forum.
