Thank you.

That serial number dates to 1975/76. However, that is a N frame serial number (model 27, 29, 57, etc. A model 19 is a K frame and would have a serial number with a "K" in it.

My bad. My 19-3 is 1973. I love the old blue wheel guns.

Thank you for help, Just one more question. By the SN is, it has M629-1. What does the M mean? My buddy has a 629-4 and it doesn't have the M. Thank you very much.

As a prefix it means Model. Sometimes they use "MOD" sometimes just "M" and other times no prefix at all.
An exception would be the 581, 681, 586 and 686 no dash and -1 L frames. The ones that had the firing pin bushing recall completed were also stamped with a "M" (for modified) above or after the model number.

Hello, going through my late grandfather's belongings, I've found what I believe is a S&W Frontier Model double action revolver. The barrel engraving reads "SMITH & WESSON SPRINGFIELD. MASS. U.S.A. PAT'D JAN. 17. & 24. 65. JULY 11. 65. AUG. 24. 69. JULY 25. 71. DEC. 2.79. MAY 11&25. 1880"
It's a 5-shot cylinder and appears to be .32 caliber
The Serial number is just 5 digits 953XX

Is there any way to get more info on this?
Thanks in advance for any help!

 

[Jim Watson]

Frontiers are .44 Caliber
Sounds like you have a .32 Double Action.
The serial number is for a Fourth Model made from 1883-1909 but the last patent date of 1880 is for a Second Model. Barrels are interchangeable. Yours made before 1899 therefore a FFL Antique.

Thanks Jim!

Hi, I have a Model 10-5, SN C722xxx. Would you be so kind as to let me know the year it was manufactured? I would appreciate it very much!

Serial numbers ran from C622700 in 1963 to C810532 in 1965. So, yours would likely be 1964.
