dwb647 that would be 1961 or early 1962 made. as to value around here a 95% model 10 with just the box gets is in the $500 to $550.00 range. Model 10's are outstanding pistols (and IMO a must have) but do not have a real high market value due to there being a revolver and the fact there are so many of them.

S&W 357
I have a Smith & Wesson 357 with FWPD stamped on it. The serial is 1D89xxx. Any information on age of this? I am assuming it was once owned by a Police officer for the Fort Worth PD.

I have a model 28-2 Highway Patrolman that followed me home. SN# N5564xx. I know it is not new. Was wondering what year it was made. It belonged to a retired police officer that had been retired for a very long time. I am not sure exactly how old it is. I think he carried it for a few years. Before that he carried a Colt Trooper .357 Mag. Though that one was given to his nephew. I bought this one from his widow (she is moving into a group home where there are no guns allowed.)

The 15 is the same as the 14 but with the shorter barrel. Quote:
The 36 should be a Chiefs Special (pre 36), not model number stamped. Quote:

Correcto on the snubbie. It is a Chief's Spec, not marked as a 36. Thanks Again - Sgt Lumpy - n0eq |

Thanks for the info on the guns. The 15-3 model I think is mid to late 60s.
It came from my dad who was a WWII US Army Air B 24 vet; it reminded him of what they carried in the day I think. |

Is anyone able to assist me in dating a gun that was passed down from my great grandfather? It is a Smith and Wesson, right side of the barrel says "32 Long CTC" and has a 6inch barrel I believe. Top of the barrel shows "Smith and Wesson, Springfield Mass." and has some patent dates, the last date is Feb. 6. 06
Serial # 1828xx |

Thanks for the info. Looks like my 15-3 was born in 1972. Its like NIB; doesnt appear to have been fired much if at all. My dad let a good friend of his trade him out of a German Luger for it about 20 years ago. The 15-3 was a similar type gun to what he carried as a naviagator on a B 24 in WWII. His friend was a tank commander for Gen Patton and really wanted the Luger. The Luger was collected by my uncle who was in the infantry in WWII; he also got the dead german officer's field glasses which I still have.
