I found a S&W on an auction site, and it says the serial number is BUD7412. It provides no other info other than that it is a 357 mag. Any info on this pistol would be great. Thanks in advance
 
From my grandfather

Smith and Wesson
Model 17
4 screw
6" barrel
.22 Long Rifle

It's insanely accurate and in good shape.

I believe 1971/72. The other number is an assembly number.

Well, the serial number dates to 1994/95 but I can't tell you much more without a picture.

1958. And yes, they are very accurate guns.

Model 60 S & W

I have a S & W Model 60, Stainless steel with wooden grips. It has Model 60 and XX131 A2 and an S that is sideways on the Yoke and the serial number on the butt is R217XXX. It is the only S & W I have and would appreciate information on the date of manufacture and value.

1978. About $400 to $450 is what they usually go for.

My father-in-law just dropped off a S&W to me....it apparently belonged to his father, but he knew nothing about it...

Blued, decent shape,,,maybe 90% finish.
Looks like a 3" barrel
Mod. 36
2385xx stamped on the butt.

Anyone that could help with some quick info will be rewarded in the next life.


Thank you much!
 
Thanks for the information Laytonj1. I paid $150.00 for it and it shoots great. Looks like I may be able to get my money back if I ever decide to sell it.
 
Trying to Find age of S&W .38

Hello All! I have my dad's old police service revolver, a .38 S&W Special CTG with serial number of C4191XX. Can anyone tell me the manufacture date? Thanks in advance!
 
I only own one smith and wesson, however I have no idea when it was made :( Its a Model 10 .38 revolver with "thin" barrel, number is C8579XX.

Thanks for anyone who can give me a rough date on when it was produced :o

1966.

Regarding the last 2 posts, the M10 and pre-M10 "C"-series serial numbers run from 1948 to 1967, and they're more or less consecutive- the guns were built and shipped mostly in serial number order.

IIRC M11s (.38S&W) and M12s (.38Spl Airweight K frames) were also mixed into this serial number range in random fashion.

For a detailed year-by-year list of M10s and other K frames of this era, go to the following link and scroll down to the bottom:

BTW I own a M10 with serial number of C623xxx - 1963. :)
