Hi Guys. Can anybody get me ball park close on what year of Model 60 No Dash I have? Serial #R3998. So, I think the “R” pre-fix means no earlier than 1969. That’s about all I have. Private sale about a year ago and I love it. Sweet old J Frame. Thanks very much.
With only four digits after the R, it is almost certainly from 1969.
Keep in mind that the Model 60 with no dash number had a very long run, from 1965 until 1988. The -1 and -2 were different variants, overlapping the run of the Model 60. There was a similar situation with the carbon steel Model 36.
Welcome! This R prefix gun was produced and also likely shipped that year. These were super popular and sold soon after being made. Enjoy!
Alan, MurphyDog, & anyone else who spent their time to respond :Thank You Sirs! I am sorry to be so long to reply. Aside from being ancient, living in Houston in the peak of this pandemic.........man. And I am just learning how to use the site. Again, thanks a million for your time and expertise!
