Where can you find the serial number on a Winchester rifle?

look on the barrel of the rifle, It should be clearly stamped near the breach(the end you load from). Serial numbers are not placed on the barrel, since the barrel is removable and is not considered the 'firearm.' The true serial number of the firearm is going to be located on the receiver. You do not indicate which model Winchester, though. You should also understand that .22 rifles and shotguns made prior to 1968 were not required to be serialized, and some Winchesters therefore did not have serial numbers.

Your gun has jammed how do you get the bullet out?

VERY CAREFULLY! Open the action of the firearm. If possible, remove the barrel of a handgun , or remove the receiver of a rifle. Using a wooden dowel that is smaller than the bore, insert the dowel in through the muzzle of the barrel, and TAP the dowel to push the bullet back to the receiver end of the barrel. Avoid using a metal rod; you don't want to damage the lands and grooves of the barrel's rifling.
