32 ca lemon squeezer date of manufacture?

[letjimdoit]

I have a 32 lemon squeezer with pearl handles s/n 16057 and a star at the end. Anyone know the date of manufacture? Also, no smith and wesson markings except at the top of the barrel. It say Smith and Wesson Springfield MASS USA and then several Patent dates...... Any help would be appreciated.

according to the blue book of guns, if its a 1st model safety hammerless, it would be manufactured between 1888 and 1902. S &W customer service may be able to pinpoint further. I don't have any S & W books, so I don't know if they'd help or not.

Your .32 Safety Hammerless was probably manufactured late in 1899, but the only way to be sure is to get a factory letter.
