You have to do a fair amount of digging, but there is charts & listings for what all those stampings mean.
And, the listings will tell what dates various ones were used.
I have done some seems the [AC] is for the year I believe 1977..
Thank you and God Bless
PN = powder negro or black powder. 18.2mm = bore size, 12ga. You got the date code. Other stamp with the shield is the proof house.
More importantly, how does she shoot???
I see allot of shot gun barrels and alot of them say SXS. What does that mean?

I have only seen a few BP shotguns that were OU (Over Under )
Well guys she shoots great..
I kinda like shooting BP shotguns.
I use my 11 ga. .75” caliber Flintlock Blunderbuss/ Muskatoon for hunting.
Two years ago I was able to get 7 quail on opening day with it shooting birdshot.
I love playing with that gun shooting buckshot.
