I was thumbing through SCSW and realized that Smith really started changing models and configurations almost every year. What are some one year production models or configurations you all have.
My 2 are a 242 and a 686-4 seven shot with the firing pin on the hammer. Any others?

631, 1990


646, 2003


Oops. I misread the first time through. You're asking for one year variations also. I'll stick with the no dash variations to shorten the list.

53 no dash, 4 screw


617 no dash, 4" Aslhand non-lugged


617 no dash, 6" Aslhand non-lugged


629 no dash, 4"


657 no dash, 4"


396 no dash


When you start including -1 and later engineering changes, Mountain Guns, and such, the variations that lasted less than a year become seemingly endless...

I like the "L" Frame, but I like them all .

586 serial AAA9xxx. I think this was first year. I bought it right after I saw the first ones at a trade show.

357 Magnum registration number 282, August 1935.

Model 500 arrived in the fall of initial production year.

I'm not sure if this counts -
629 no dash pinned and recessed

M-63, 657, 629, 632, I think thats all the first yr production guns if I counted right.

I believe my 386Sc/S was only made in 2007.

My 25-7- 45 cal. model of 1989. I believe they were only made for one year, before becoming the 25-9 which was identical except for the longer bolt notches.
