Hi, just picked up a new to me 19-5 6"bbl, nice condition, looks to have been fired very little, but no box. Serial # AJC45XX. Can anyone please help me with approximate year of production? Thanks.

Stand Catalog of Smith & Wesson, shows the 19-5 was made between 1982 and 1988, That particular ser# prefix does not show, I would guess 85 or 86 from the range listed.

Thanks, mbnatt. The date on the inside of the grips show 1985, but I wasn't certain that they were the original grips.
