Smith and Wesson serial number search

pdbertd,

Well, the good news is it's definitely a model 14.
The bad news: the original serial number has been ground off and a new one stamped on it. And it does not follow S&W's serial number sequence so it was not done by them.

It's a .38 Military & Police, which became the model 10 when S&W began assigning model numbers around 1957.
Your SN dates it to early 1930's.

S & W serial inquiry

Wow! "Right Here" is such a good answer! Here goes:

S&W 22 revolver s/n 209xx

2
74-150 on yoke
4

74150 on cylinder

pistol has adjustable sights.
cylinder rod is left hand thread.

could not find a series letter. Could it be K series, K frame 1948?

or Nframe 1924?

What do I have?

Thanks for looking, Capt billy
 
captbilly,

Did you take the serial number from the underside of the frames grip butt.
If you look back at post number 4214 on the last page you'll see where the SN is located. Include any letter prefixes.

An adjustable sighted K frame will have a "K" prefix SN.
S&W did not offer a N frame in 22.

.38 special

I THINK I'm posting in the right place. After spending a while on the net this seems to be the place to ask.

I was recently given a few of my great grandfather's firearms and had a question about the date on one

Any and all info would be great, thanks.
