thank you, that is strange to have a prefix so far ahead of the numbers. I have a 10-7 where the 3D487xx is all next to each other. so it just needs an S stamp.

the gun is not illegal, there is .5 of an inch fwd of the serial number, if the prefix was stamped it should have been near the serial number.

reply The number is stamped on the cylinder with the S there, there is a 5 stamped on the left side, the hammer and trigger still have some of there case hardening color, just cant get it to show up in a picture. Looks like someone cut the frame to fit the grips, sad thing to do. still, I think...

Hi, I just traded in to a model 1950 target in 45 acp and there are two thing odd about this pistol, and seeing that S&W is not taking letter requests till next year I thought I would try here. first is there is no S prefix on the serial number stamped on the frame, but there is on the barrel...

Thank you for the info

I have a model 10-7 that has a sn starting with 3D58xxx it has a different number stamped on the crane then the sn. I was told it was bought from Navy DRMO, everything I find shows 2D to 4D, no 3D sn. Was just trying to find ship date.
