Default DOB request 66-1

Well it's P&R so I'm hoping I'm in the right place! (I spend most of my time in the "1980 to present" revolver forum).

Found this locally in Raleigh, NC. Just fixed a minor endshake issue with the help of a fellow forum member. Now I'd like to know it's DOB, please.

S/N is 72K37xx. Also curious about what the correct grips would be for this revolver. Thanks in advance!

Look's like 1980 manufacture. It would have had the wood target grips.

Yep, shipped in 1980 and should have had wood target grips with the speedloader cutout, I believe. At least that is what mine has, shipped in the same year.

Thanks, gents! I just happen to have a spare set of target grips in my grips box, I'll have to put them on for the next photo session.
