S&W currently uses a alpha, numeric serial number system which they started transitioning in at AAA0000 in 1980. Jim |

That would fall between 1973-74. S/n range was J100000-J250000. |

Very old S&W .38 question
Hello,
I have an old S&W .38 Ser. Num. 658xxx and as best I can read it... 38(G or 6) &W Special CTG. My father says my grandfather had it when he was a boy in the 1940's. Can anyone tell me it's DOB, anything interesting about it, and its approximate value? Thank you very much, NutsWoC |

This gun was one of the earliest models built on the mid-size or "K" frame, which came to be the workhorse of the S&W line for police work or personal defense. With some modifications, it eventually became the Model 10, the basic .38 Special 6-shot fixed-sight revolver. S&W made a lot of these, so prices aren't high except for perfect specimens. In good condition, somewhere around $300 or so - excellent condition, maybe double that. Oh, that character you can't quite make out on the barrel should be an "S" (as in "S&W"), and the CTG just simply stands for "cartridge." |

Though not rated for +P, it's all steel so a limited amount of it is fine. Jim |

Hey everybody, I came across this thread when doing a Google search for my dads gun, so I'd figure I might as well sign up and ask this question. My dad has had this gun for about 50 years now, but we both are not sure about the age and what it actually is (he got it when when he was 16, so there's no box or documentation around here).
It's a 6 round S&W .38 Special model 14-2, with SN being K660XXX, it's also a CTG with a 4in barrel. |
