63 no dash not pinned barrel

[firefighterjohn]

My LGS called me about a model 63 they just received. It's 4" no dash without the pinned barrel. It had the original blue&white flip-top box, paperwork, and tools still in the plastic bag. It had some custom stocks but the original ones were not with it. I checked the stamping and it showed MOD 63 with no dash.

Its in beautiful shape and since I didn't have one I put it back on layaway. It was $700 and the serial number was ABD19nn. Can anyone tell me when this was made? I've done some searching that it might be a transition stamped gun?

Thanks in advance...hoping this was the correct dated forum to put it in.

Yes, you have the correct section.

The model 63 spanned the pinned and unpinned barrel era. Guessing 1983 or so with the SN prefix.
