Smith and Wesson serial number search
- Thread starter Driveout02
- Start date
That's it! Unfortunately my copy of the Standard Catalog of S&W only goes to 2004 and that serial number is a more recent one. If you call S&W customer service they will give you the manufacture date over the phone.

I was wondering about that. It has a hole for a lock, and the keys are in the case. :-(
It appears to be unfired at least.
Thank you very much for the help!

Jim, thank you so much. This is something of a grail for me . . . you deserve a photo!
S&W Model 29 box set
I inherited a S&W Model 29 box set with 3 barrels and trying to get info on the year and rough value. I think I found it to be 1961-ish, but haven't found any details on a similar set like this with the box. Serial # is S2080XX. See images and let me know!

Serial numbers ran from S207000 in 1961 to S219999 in 1962.
S&W did not offer "pistol packs". The barrels are something a previous owner put together. Your 29 is an earlier 4 screw model and looks like an original factory nickle finish. As for value, the gun itself is likely $1k+ (assuming one of the barrels is the original) but as a package it depends on whether someone was interested in the additional barrels and if they have actually been fitted to the frame.
One thing I'm interested in is if your 29 is stamped 29 or 29-1. Makes a big difference on value as -1's are quite scarce.

I too need help on a S&W revolver number
Last year I purchased a 44mag Mountain Gun. It shoots GREAT! Can anyone tell me when it was manufactured? The Serial number on the grip and the yoke is BDW 4707. The Yoke also has M629-2. When I looked it up I get nothing. Who can help?
My guess is '88 or '89 from what I have read on here. The gun has "Smith & Wesson" on the left side of the barrel and "44 magnum" on the right side of the barrel. Has hammer mounted firing pin and of course no lock. Stainless Steel tapered barrel.
Thanks in advance,

That's because the Book is not very clear on it.
1987 – AFL, AHC, AHV, ALC, ANK, ANN, ANR, ANS, AUC, AUK, AUV, AVA, AVB, AVN, AVV, AVY, AWD, AWE, AWF, AWP, AWT, AWU, AWW, AWY, AYE, AYF, AYL, AYW
1988 – AFZ, AWP, AYC, AYE, AYM, AYR, AYU, AYY, AWD, AZA, AZH, AZJ, AZE, AZL, BAF, BAN, BAP, BAR, BAS, BBA, BBF, BBH, BBN, BBT
While AYN does not appear above it likely falls in that date range.

Recently inherited my grandfather's S&W 357 (N955220) and was hoping to get a production year on it. I did see in a previous post that N9xxxxx ran from 1982 to 1986, but wasn't sure if anyone could give a more specific year.
Thanks in advance for any help/info!

Picked recently up a Smith 442 with what looks like factory satin nickel finish, I know they were only out for a few years in the 90's
Just curious what year it was made.
