I recently aquired a A S&W model 36 Cheif's Special with a SN# 154XXX. I am trying to see what year this revolver was made. Can anyone help?

Thanks.

From the 2nd edition of the Standard Catalog of Smith & Wesson;

your Model 36 was made some where between 1957 and 1962.

Probably closer to the late 50s side as the cut off for 1957 was 125000 and the next listing is for 1962 at 295000.
