I was wondering just how old my 629-1 is...serial number AWA1094.

Possibly as early as 82' and as late as July 1987. What Barrel length? Round butt or square butt? do you have the SKU# from the box?

No box for it, so no SKU. Serrated backstrap,square butt. 8 3/8" barrel.Target hammer and trigger ( I think ).Hammer and trigger are both wider than normal ( thumb pad on hammer is widened, trigger is widened and polished).

I have three AWA's in my s/n collection. The first two from April and the last one from March of 1987. This was the era of the plain one-piece box (no LSI, Bangor Punta or eagle logo on the front flap).

The product code of a standard M629 with 8 3/8" barrel would of been 103609 or 103615. I'm not sure what the difference was. It may of been the stocks. Maybe, one had Targets and the other Combats.(?)
