DOB request, model 67-1

[sbeduckman]

It's pinned, so I put it in this forum. 24K6761. Appreciate the info gents!

1977.
Smith's 1st stainless gun was in 1965, so pinned or not, you chose the right Forum to post your query.

Thank you sir.

1967, the first year of the 67-1. According to the S&W "bible" 3rd Ed. Dave_n

Well...these aren't even close. Can we get some more opinions? I thought the -1 started in 76 or 77, and since it was pinned it would be pre 82; so 77 seemed right to me.

The SWCA list I have shows 24K6701-24K9999 in 1979.

It doesn't agree with the catalog.

I have one with serial number 77k5970 if you know dob I would greatly appreciate it

Per SCSW 3rd edition, 24KXXXX was shipped in 1977. Therefore, with your revolver being pinned (pre-82), 1977 looks reasonable

In fact, the range for 1977 K Serial Prefix revolvers, per the SCSW 3rd edition, is 10K0001 - 24K9999

1980. 57K0001 - 91K6800 is the range for that year

No pictures? Even though a poor 1, my 67 no dash from 1973. It now has correct magna stocks on it. Bob
