10-5 Help

[gunnut2u]

HI folks ,
I bought a 10-5 and am needing a little help . I was wondering the date of manufacture ...serial # D451xxx and there is the marking TWC 62xx on the side of the frame . Does any one know what the TWC stands for ? Also the crane is stamped SG1 ?
Any help would be great ??????

Should be a late 1972, early 73 gun. The TWC number if under the crane on the frame and the number on the crane are more than likely assembly numbers although I could be wrong.

thanks Bob ,
The TWC is on the side of the frame above the trigger and below the cylinder . It is not inside or on the crane .

Tim, I sent some info PM. An earlier reposnse about my TWC marked 10-5 guessed the year 63-64.

I sent for a SW letter for mine and will post it for those of us who are lucky enough to have one of these high-dollar pieces.

That will help us set the reserve price for these exceedingly rare genuine TWCs.
