Default SMITH & WESSON MODEL 36 DOB

I just picked up a nice S&W mod 36 pinned barrel SN 4J70xx.
Can someone please me when it was made?
My Standard Catalog of Smith & Wesson was not much help with the serial # and date.


Thanks

SCSW 4th Edition, p 489, shows your serial in '71/'72. I'm guessing '71.

Sometimes my reading glasses help. Other times, no.

We're all here to help with the fine print.

Cheers,
