Do you have any idea what year the factory stopped putting the serial numbers on the inside of the stocks or was it just the Target Stocks they stopped putting the serial numbers on?
I have a Model 65 with PC Magna stocks with matching serial number. This gun was made in 1976 or 1977.
The Model 27-2 that I am looking at with no serial number on the Target stocks was made in 1979 or 1980?
Did S&W stop putting the serial numbers on the stocks in this 3 to 4 year time period?
