    Date of manufacture - 38 S&W CTG M&P REVOLVER WITH (MAYBE) IVORY GRIPS

    Thant's my dyslexia again. The SN was actually V651409. Otherwise the numbers match on the barrel (with a P+Star), yoke (KO 98764) and cylinder (651409). I did the pin test on the inside of the grips and nothing melted. The yellowing on the outside, fabed white inside, and the grain on the...

    Thanks for the replies and your help. As you can see the butt stock has a V in front of the serial number. The barrel is 4.5 or 5" long. It is a 38 caliber as a 38 special round will not fit in the cylinder.

    Hello all, I just inherited the above detailed revolver with the serial number 651409. No box, just the revolver. It is nickel plated (I think), the grips have an oak branch and leaves design, and a swivel mount. If anyone can give me any specific details on this wheel gun it would be greatly...
