Do you have the box as a SKU: ****** or a photo would help . Double stack or single stack but a barrel " about 3" " long and single stack mag would be a m&p Shield ??

A photo here will help or below

Not like your suppling much info as the serial numbers useless and theres no photo . If you have the factory box it would have all your info on it for YOU to figure out the model and build date !!??

Default I gave all requiered info

So, you are telling me serial numbers are of no use to find date of manufacture? I do have the plastic 'box' it came in and I see no way to deduce the info I wanted!
It is a M&P 45, 45acp caliber, 4 inch barrel, SKU #109157, serial #DXV3150
What more is requiered?
I assumed there would be folks here to help. Not send me on a chase to S&W for answers!

What more is required? Initially, just a bit more info about the firearm; and just a dash of patience and civility.

Does your label have a “Spec Ord” number. That’s a Julian date code that we can decipher.

You have received help. The serial number does not have the date embedded in it. You need to call S&W to get the answer you seek.

I'm curious, why are you opposed to calling S&W?
