Thanks, Mike. I am looking forward to getting the Letter of Authenticity. I hope it tells me to whom the gun was shipped. I hope that it was shipped to Portland P.D. (Oregon) or another police dept. nearby. I bought it from The Gun Room.

Thank you, Gentlemen. This is most interesting. I thought I was buying a "shooter" and instead have a collectable! I did indeed request a Letter of Authenticity from Smith & Wesson Historical Foundation. Now, the pregnant question will be: How much is this revolver worth?

Yes! All three serial number match.

Holy cow! For once in my gun-buying experience, I didn't over-pay for a gun? This LGS usually over charges and I just pay! Thank you for that reassuring post. Closer to 1940? That sounds about right because my research indicated S&W stopped at s/n 700,000 just before WWII

Thank you. I didn't mention, but it is taken for granted this is a five-screw frame. This revolver was previously owned by a local police officer in the Portland, Oregon area. I doesn't look like much, but it is close to mechanically perfect with smooth DA/SA trigger pull and little or no...

I purchased an old, well-patina S&W K-Frame, round-butt, M&P in .38 Special: serial number - 692456 and would like to konw the date of manufacture. Can you help?

This R.P. was purchased from Cabela's in Ackworth, GA. and shipped to Cabela's nearby in Tualatin, OR. I paid $675. That was after Veteran's discount. So, it was not the cheapest, but I think a fair price nonetheless.

Thank you. No. I did not count the screw on the front of the trigger guard. So, my R.P. does have five screws.

Thank you! And, I also forgot to mention that this revolver has 4 screws.

I just purchased an S&W .32 Long Regulation Police blue steel revolver with s/n 356987 on the forestrap with original wood grips and the mushroom style ejector push rod. It has "SMITH & WESSON SPRINGFIELD MASS USA on top of the barrel along with patent dates. There is NO "Made in USA' marking on...
