Universals are a civilian version of the M1 carbine, made after WW 2. No serial number data is available for the civilian carbines- sorry.
ABOUT 1962-63. I say ABOUT since Universal is gone, and so are their production records. Yours may be from the first year or two that the Universal brand was used.
what year was my Winchester M1 carbine serial number 1210906 manufactured
Sorry, but know of no public database for these rifles. Generally they are not in the same database as military M1 carbines.
The m-1 is 99% new condition all original and maybe worth $10,000 .
With the serial number that you provided,your Springfield model 1873 Trapdoor Carbine was produced in the year 1877.
If you have a Universal brand M1 Carbine, they are out of business, and left no production records. Your serial number is one of the later ones made. See the link below for some information on the company.
Around $500, depending on condition.
It was a manufacturing code.
$500
