S&W 38 Special CTG with an S Prefix
I inherited from my father a Blue 38 Special S&W CTG with a 4" barrel, 6 shot, serial number S 8493**. Trying to do some research on the age approximate date of manufacture but I am stumped by the "S" prefix. It has what appear to be original walnut grips and when I roll out the cylinder, I can see the letter K stamped and the numbers 18035 stamped underneath. The serial number on the cylinder and the butt match.
I also inherited a Nickle 38 S&W CTG, 6 shot with a 4" barrel serial number C 3586**. When I roll out the cylinder on that one, it has a P stamped with the numbers 44380 underneath and underneath those numbers is stamped a 0.
Tried to attach a picture of each. Can anyone help with approximate Date of manufacture of these?
