Based on the database maintained by my friend and partner, Charlie (ordnanceguy), and me, serial number 763xxx would have shipped in the approximate time period of March-May, 1941. (If you would care to have your gun entered into our database, I'd appreciate it if you would post the full SN here or e-mail me off-list at [email protected], removing the "NOSOAM," of course.) This would have been a "pre-Lend Lease" example and would probably letter as having shipped to the British Purchasing Commission.

SN 9402xx would be from about one year later: March-April, 1942. (We'd love to have your gun in the database, too. Please advise full SN and all markings.)

willydd,

For a 1941-shipped example, I'd look for a pre-Victory Model in either .38 S&W or .38 Special caliber within the serial number range of 725000 to 870000. Good hunting!
