I am a new user and would like some info about one of the firearms that my Dad left to me. It is a S&W 44 Special 4inch barrel S/N S 149XXX, N frame, hand ejector pre model24. Not target model. Would like to know approx. mfg date and ballpark value. Condition is near mint. Thanks

Try posting the question in the revolver section. You'll have them drooling over something that nice.

On S Prefix, S&W finished `1955 with serial number S139999, and finished 1956 with serial number S149999. Really need some indication of condition and/or pictures before any one can give you a valid estimate on value.
