God! One of my favoritist guns. I have both the 30-1 and the 31-1. They are a joy to shoot. The 30-1 was made between 1948 and 1976. Originally built on the I-frame, 1961 began the production on the J frame. Diamond grips deleted in 1968. What do you want to know. It's one of the best little guns Smith made.
Serial numbers: 1961-1970 712954-826977. Yours is towards the end so figure 1969 or 1970.
Someone correct me if I messed up the numbers. Wouldn't be the first time.
