dates of manufacture?
I have three S&W revolvers to check date of manufacture
#1 .38 cal Stainless steel
4 inch heavy barrel (non pinned)
square butt
6 shots-not recessed
fixed front with grooved rear sights
serial # 30 D 4243
model 64-3
one interesting feature of this revolver is that all the lettering "Made in USA, Marcas registradas, Smith & Wesson, Springfield Mass" on the frame under the barrel is upside down! Any idea why?
#2 .44 magnum Stainless steel
8 3/8 inch barrel (non pinned)
square butt
6 shots-not recessed
raised red ramp front with adjustable white outline rear sight
serial # BAS 0330
model 629-1
this revolver has a target hammer and target trigger
#3 .22 cal blue
4" barrel (pinned)
square butt with wood goncalo alves grips
6 shot with recessed chambers
raised front with adjustable rear sights, no paint on sights
serial #3K92289
model 18-3
Many thanks in advance! Terry
