Smith and Wesson serial number search

smith 19=5

serial is 6xxx can anyone tell me age thanks
That's not the serial number. Take it from the underside of the frames grip butt. If it has target grips you will have to remove the them to see it.
Should have 3 letters followed by 4 numbers or a "K" in it.

model 30

32 long 4 digit serial anyone know the age thanks
See above. And should have 6 numbers.

Hi
Can someone help me with identifying the model and age of a revolver i recently inherited?

It's a S&W 357 s/n 5D34xxx

Thanks
 
date a K-22

A friend asked me to check on a gun his mother has inherited. It is a K-22, 6inch barrel, original grips. I think it is post-WWII...1945 to early 50's, but I'm not sure. The serial number is K 664xx. I've read there is a book that provides this information, but as I don't have any other S&Ws to look up, I hoped someone here might share the information. Thanks very much.
 
Not very long ago, I was curious as to what year a revolver was made. I called Smith & Wesson's 800 number, hit option #7, a gentleman answered and I told him that I was interested in finding out what year this particular gun was made. He asked me what the serial number was, I told him. He said "let me look it up". In less than 30 seconds he said it was made in 1958.

I was planning on being sold a book or something. This is the only time I've ever called S&W and I was really impressed how helpful he was. I'm not sure if I just lucked out and got the right person or what. Nonetheless, it was very reassuring that with all the calls they probably get a day he would politely take the time to lookup the information for me. Before ending the call I told him thank you very much and he replied "no problem, call us back if you need anything else".

Production date would be 1979, and it's most likely a Model 65-2. You can confirm that by swinging the cylinder out and looking at what's stamped on the frame inside the yoke cutout.

1948. Interesting - second 1948 K-22 we've had in the last few days. In the unlikely event that either you or Elkins45 is interested in selling, I'd be prepared to make you a very handsome offer on the gun (the production year is the same as mine, and I'd really like to have at least one revolver from that year).
 
Thank you FlyFish

Looks as if it's a Model 13-2......that's what is stamped on the frame.....not familiar with S&W model designations.......but thanks to you i have more information

Yes, that makes sense. Sorry, that was my oversight - I forgot the Model 13 is also included in that serial number sequence. The 13 and the 65 are basically the same gun, just blued and stainless, respectively.

Can anyone please help me with the date on a Model 10-7 with the serial number starting 17d8xxx??

Would be very near the end of 1982 - the last SN that year was 17D8900
 
I recently inherited a revolver from my grandfather. It is a .357 mag S/N S83XXX. I'm not sure what model it is. Any info would be great. Thanks!
