I have a model 19 no dash at home. The s/n lookup told me it was made in 58 or 59 i think. I got it to carry and shoot but it still looks OK. Sorry, I cant get pics up since it's at home and I'm in Afghanistan. I hope to get it worked on someday and fix the gap and endshake. Mostly I just carry it around for snakes, or the occasional rabid rabbit, may deer hunt with it too.
