    How old is my Rangie?

    If you have TRIPLEX TOUGHENED glass in you RR check closely on the word TOUGHENED there should be a very small dot above one of the letters. counting from the T=1 O=2 U=3 etc. this will give you a lead as to when the glass was manufactured ie dot above H =5 then 1975 Hope it helps. Goldpanner
