I cannot think of any 5-screw S&W in .357 Magnum which would have a SN that high. Can you recheck and post a few pictures?

Welcome to the Forum.
Yes, we need good, clear photos to ID your revolver.
Is the barrel marked ".357 Magnum" and is it marked "Smith & Wesson"?

Are you measuring barrel length from the muzzle to the front face of the cylinder?

There was no fixed sight, 5-screw N frame .357 made by S & W. Without photos my wild guess is you may have a late pre-WW II .38 (Special) Military & Police revolver with a shortened barrel; even if it chambers .357s it should not be fired with them. Looking forward to the photos and more information.

My bet is on a 38/44 reamed out to .357 with a shortened barrel. And an extra digit in the posted SN.
