thanks for the reply, we don't know what the B-1 means that is stamped on the yolk and i am assuming the 5 digit number 49394 is a production run number ?. thanks for the heads up on the recall !!
So we have a Smith 686 serial number AFS 3318 and we can't seem to find much info in the books about it. purchased in 1984 or 5 which is the first run of the 686. the other stamps on the revolver are B1 S which is for stainless i believe and the numbers 49394. any ideas ? thanks
