Default DOB of my 30-1?

It is a very nickle finish 3" RB with serrated trigger, diamond grips and flat latch, #712224. Can anyone help me narrow down the DOB better than 1961-66?

Closest one I have is 736594 which I show as 1964. If you were a member of the SWCA, which we highly recommend, you could ask the good Dr. Jinks for a ship date.

That's a nice one!

I don't know where it's been but it's really tarnished. A little polishing with Flitz, SemiChrome or Mothers Mag Wheel Polish will make it like brand new. You'll be amazed!
