With a serial number of 1K62006, would anyone have a guess as to when it was made? How would I find out for sure? Thanks!!!
Not a guess. The Standard Catalog of Smith and Wesson 4th Edition says serial range 1K39501 to 1K99999 equates to 1971. The only way to know for sure is to request a letter from Smith and Wesson. There are instructions on how to request a letter elsewhere on this forum or you can contact S&W directly.
