How about a 64-3 with serial B16 072XX?

SparkSVT · January 1, 2009, 09:28 PM

Can someone tell me anything about a my model 36 two inch barreled revolver serial number 781038? it has a pin in the barrel area as opposed to a screw.

Thanks

Get the serial number from the bottom of the grip butt. There will be a "K" in it.

1968. The pinned barrel ended in 1982. They don't use screws. The barrels are screwed in tight.

I have a Model 10-5 with the diamond grips, 4" barrel, serial # C6307XX. I'm guesstimating mid-late 60's.

Thanks in advance!

Looking for some info on a Regulation Police in .38S&W that I just picked up. Serial Number is: 3378. Thanks for your help!

Close, 1963.

Serial numbers started at 1 in 1917 thru 54474 in 1940. So yours would probably be in the first couple years of production.

Attrayant · January 2, 2009, 08:38 PM

Thanks, laytonj1, pretty interesting. I seem to have a pretty early model then, I'm definitely going to have to send off that letter to S&W now.

bkarst · January 3, 2009, 09:23 PM

I have recently acquired a 38 S&W Special CTG and I am wondering what an approximately value is on this revolver and an estimated dob.

I've got a .32long passed to me from my Granpa. The story is that my Granma chased a naked man out of her barn with it when the old man was at work. She had country girl spunk! I never did find out the whole story but it sounded great to us kids....

serial# 490xxx
Probably from the 20's or 30's

dmwphoto · January 8, 2009, 04:06 PM

Just aquired 2 nice S&Ws
unfired model 29-2 ser#N644xxx
model 17 ser#21K5334 (which seems like a weird number)

It's either a .32 Hand Ejector 3rd Model or a .32 Regulation Police. The difference between the two is the grip configuration.

The .32HE has a round butt frame with a smooth backstrap. The factory stocks were probably either black hard rubber or checkered walnut; post-1929 walnut stocks will have a silver S&W logo medallion. these guns are also sometimes seen with factory walnut "extension" stocks that cover the entire backstrap and have a sharp shoulder at the top.

The .32RP has a unique shouldered backstrap and extension stocks that create a square-butt-like profile. The top of the backstrap is exposed, but the stocks cover the bottom half of the backstrap below the shoulder.

Your gun may have been built during the 30s when S&W assembled many of their guns out of serial number order using stockpiled parts. You'll have to letter it to get an exact build date.

laytonj1 · January 8, 2009, 11:25 PM

unfired model 29-2 ser#N644xxx = 1979/80
model 17 ser#21K5334 = 1977

My back will never be the same from shoveling the 6 feet of snow we received in three weeks. Fortunately, the worst I got from the mass melt was a flooded crawl space.

Hello community!

When my grandfather passed away I was left one of his old S&W revolvers and I'm trying to find out how old it is and also what kind of finish it has. I've been to a couple different places that sell guns but I haven't seen a finish like the one this one has. I've attached a picture but it isn't very clear. The finish is a non reflective gray.

When I open the cylinder there is a 10-6 number and on the butt of the gun the Serial # C659xxx

Also I've seen some really nice aftermarket grips (hogue/pachmayr) that I might want to add. What size frame do I have? I think K but I'm not 100%

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

spddrcr · January 12, 2009, 04:42 AM

hey guys, long time lurker and was hoping for help just like the other 30 some odd pages of people

so i have an old smith and wesson with the serial # of 13085 with a star after the numbers, on the barrel it says 44 special CTG and the other side of the barrel has a bunch of patent #s. the gun is nikel. from everything ive seen reaserching online i think it is a triple lock but im not sure.
