Does anyone know if the Smith carbine made by Pietta uses the same two letter code for the date of manufacture as their cap and ball pistols?

I didnt know the pietta revolvers had a date code? I have 2 and wouldnt mind knowing how to tell? Is it part of the serial number? or elseware? :confused:

Sorry, cant help you on your carbine question, obviously

It's a two (I think) letter code in a box stamped on the frame, I'm sure someone on this site more knowledgeable than me will post the secret code for you :)
 
I'm not sure if date codes are used on all Italian repos; but, my Henry, '66 Carbine, '73 Rifle and Uberti Cattlemen all have date codes on them.
 
Here's the full chart:
