S&W reused the same serial numbers between their different models years ago. As I will need to determine the model first I will need a much better description and / or picture to help you. Chambering, how many rounds it holds, swing out cylinder or top break, finish, etc.trying to find out exact model and approximate age of smith and wesson have serial # 92853?
1957.K38 sn: K 313345
No such model number from S&W. Sounds like an assembly number.38 S&W Special; ser#102*; model 6029; 4" barrel
6K137xx = 1974.The serial number on the base of the frame is 6K137xx.
The serial number on the base of the frame is R1058xx
SN's ran from J100000 in 1973 to J250000 in 1974. So, most likely 1974.Model 36
J205xxx
Your right. It's a .38 M&P 1st Model. Pictures help a lot. Serial number dates it to 1st year of production. SN's ran from 1 in 1899 to 20975 in 1902.This is a old M&P 1st edition...pre 1900 model
It's a 38 Military & Police. They became the model 10 when S&W began stamping model numbers ~ 1957.The serial # on the butt is C 428xxx.
