One of mine is close kin to yours---#30261. It was shipped October 18, 1896.
It's interesting yours is caliber marked, and mine's not----proving once again S&W did what they wanted to when they wanted to do it (just so long as it wasn't in any recognizable order); and if anyone has a problem with that, it's just too damn bad!!
Given the absence of our usual fussing and fuming about it, the turnaround time for letters must be rather prompt---3-4 weeks (counting mail time).
