I received a .38, a 10-6, in clean and tight condition and would like an approximate date of birth. Serial is D3139xx. Thanks in advance.

Thanks! .

Typo. 116J37. Didn't see the 5. 116J37 on the butt and on the box.

Took pics. Can't get them to attach.... Only pic I didn't attach is the one showing up. Weird.

Gents- I'm guessing at age here, so I might be in the wrong sub-forum. I have a model 36, 3" barrel, serial 116J37, unused with original box and paperwork. I am interested in when this revolver was made, and approximate value. Thanks in advance.

We got the hard sell. T&E'd them and experienced an exponentially higher rate of malf and part breakage. It wasn't that bad, but compared to what we normally issue, a big step down. I wish they would issue us S&W revolvers as backup though.

No gun should be left in an unattended vehicle unless it's secured in the trunk (if there is no driver release button) or it is secured in a lockbox or with a cable lock. Under the seat or in the factory console or glovebox doesn't cut it. A lockbox or cable lock need not be expensive. And even...

I acquired a model 36 (retired duty gun) that came from a retired NYPD officer. Serial on butt is xxxxx9. There are various other numbers in other places but I don't think they're serial numbers (B6 and 48312 appear in a couple of places). Thanks in advance for any info, be it date of...
