Finding year of manufacturing by serial number

AFSS · February 20, 2024, 12:02 PM

Hello everyone, thank you for having me in this forum.

I have a question about year of manufacturing of an American Standard Tools revolver, in caliber 22short, with a serial number 10224?

I know it is old, but I don't know how old as we don't see many old firearms in Israel and we don't have a data base about them.

Ant help would be appreciated,

Lior

Like so? RIA says 1868-1873, I doubt you could find an exact date.

The years range you gave me is enough, because it means it's an antique one.
Thank you very much

It's never possible to find the exact year, because they are manufactured for a period of years, but still 3 or 5 years don't make much difference.
