Default S&W .38 Model 10-5 serial number help

hey folks, I just picked up this nice revolver down in Mexico... it is a Model 10-5 2" barrel 6 shot .38 Special.

I was wondering if someone could help me... I want to find out its age and also if the baby can fire +P ammo.

Here is the tricky part... it doesn't have a Serial Number between the grips, but it says MOD 10-5 , and then "34X94" by the barrel support, as well as a G13 and again 34X94 on the frame behind one of the grips.

It has 2 visible screws on the right side of the frame as well as one screw under the right grip. It also has a screw on the frontal part between the grips, but it does not have any screws in front of the trigger guard.

i'm sure it's a K frame... it's bulky. Again, I'd love to be able to determine it's age and whether is safe or not for +P's.

Thanks folks!!!
