S&W 38 spl believe to be model 36 ?'s
I need help with ID, age and value range, thanks in advance.
No model designation, just says 38 SPL, faint hint of a cylinder turn ring. Only bluing wear is on the trigger guard. Bore and rifling excellent.
Serial # J5255**

Model designation should be stamped on the frame, under the yoke and below the barrel lug.
Appears to be a model 36, and according to the Standard Catalog, dates to around 1977.

ID - a Model 36 (which should be stamped in the yoke cutout of the frame, visible with cylinder open)
Age - likely shipped in 1977
Value - $400 - $450 for gun only w/aftermarket grips
