I have a S&W 44 special revolver that I inherited from my father. I am trying to establish it's approximate age. the serial # is S 67819. I believe it is pre WWII.
A have 2 smiths I would like to know the years of....first is a 4506-1 s/n vbh96xx
Problem with the second one is that I don't have a model #. It is a 38 spl 6 shot revolver s/n d4713xx. Any help??????
I need help identifying the year and value of a revolver I got from my grandfather. I was told it was his sidearm in World War II. On the barrel it says "38 S&W Special CTG". The bluing is in very good condition, the gun still fires (although it has not been fired in 20+ years), and to the best of my knowledge, all parts are original. The serial number on the butt is 503109. Below are pictures of both sides of the gun.
I just bought a Smith-Wesson 625-8 Performance Center with the serial CRY****. Could anyone help me place the approx date of manufacture?
Also, does anyone else know if the 625 Jerry Miculek grips are any wider and more handfilling that the ugly technicolor grips that come with the gun?
Not allot to go on but the number on the butt is the serial number.102854 on butt and the other is a 38 clg 6 shot 374479 on butt
The age of the M&P and the Airweight being an older aluminum frame gun, I would recommend avoiding +P.Guns from father in law nypd any idea on ammo safe to shoot hear alot about +p rounds
