Info on a 3914.
Hi,
I was hoping someone could help me date a S & W 3914. The serial number is VAL11XX. I purchased it lightly used at the LGS and have had it to the range twice, what a great firearm!!!
Thanks, MET

I've never dated any of my 3rd Gens, but congrats on a fine pistol! One of those is with me most of the time I'm away from home.

SCS&W....
3914s manufactured........1990-1996.
Page 401 Modern Auto Serial#s... shows VANxxxx as 1998
So "VALxxxx"....... Pre 98...... on a 3914 would have to guess at 1996 ??

As always, you can simply call S&W customer service and they will happily give you the date of birth in about 30 seconds.
