S&W 10-8, 4" Serial 6D318XX. From my digging I'm coming up with 1980 as year of manufacture. Can anyone confirm?

The gun was simply known as the Chiefs Special until S&W began stamping model numbers around 1957. Jim Last edited by laytonj1; May 15, 2016 at 06:03 PM. |

J145682 = 1973/74 You can shoot 38+P in them but because they are aluminum frame it could accelerate wear and tear. Best bet is to limit +P's to defense use/testing and use standard 38's for general plinking. Jim |

Thanks Jim! Although I will never know for certain, that date makes the story at least possible. At any rate, it's a classic I will definitely enjoy!

Another age request
Hello all,
I have a 3-1/2", Mod 27-2, # on the butt is S31xxxx. Best I can figure it was made in 59 or 60, does that sound correct. Thanks Todd |
