Serial number inquiry.....
Hello. I just purchased a beautiful Model 67. 38 special, 4+" barrel.
The serial number is CNX62xx. I would appreciate any information you might have regarding this gun, especially when it was manufactured. Thanks. |

A call to S&W's customer service will get you the DOB over the phone for free. S&W 1-800-331-0852 (USA) Mon-Fri 8:00AM-8:00PM Eastern Time That said, the model 67 is the stainless version of the older model 15. Both are excellent guns. Jim |

Greetings all. S1204
Hello everyone,
Looking at my grandfathers old revolver. Butt of the gun has S 1204. In side the frame it shows 44626. I have been reading through the threads, but don't see many references to the lower number S's. I have attached a picture of the butt S#. No luck with the smaller number, camera won't zoom clearly. I will swing by amazon next and see about one of the books mentioned in the threads. Just looking for dates, or any info on this old beauty. Thanks all, great site! Last edited by Glenn E. Meyer; November 30, 2013 at 11:47 AM. |

It's very difficult to work with just a serial number. Can you provide additional information, such as: caliber, number of chambers, barrel length, etc., as well as a few photos of the entire gun?

Thanks Flyfish
On the part you describe and I was guessing at it reads: 3D 31651 So i am wondering if this part is original to the revolver. Would you have an opinion? |

Lesgeaux - if I understand correctly it sounds like you have two different SNs stamped on the frame, and that's got me stumped. Jim, do you have any thoughts?

The number on the underside of the grip butt is the standard serial number location. During the 80's/90's S&W sometimes also stamped the SN in the yoke cutout location but it would have been a single line. That, and having two completely different SN's is very unlikely. Jim |

The model 60 is built on the J frame and is the stainless version of the model 36. In 1996 S&W went to the J "magnum" frame and started chambering then in 357 magnum also. Quote:
AVA5830 = 1987. Jim |

Your M&P, by the way, is close to the approximate SN at which heat-treating of cylinders began (316648), at which point the guns are supposedly safe to fire with .38 Special +P ammo. However, there's a lot of differing opinion on whether the early heat treating was really done properly, and although I'm no expert in this area I'd strongly advise against using +P in this gun, assuming that you're planning to fire it at all.
