I just purchased a S&W 645 and was wondering what year it was made?
Serial is TAK33**
Any help would be much appreciated.

Looks like maybe 1987.

vrichard, thank you very much. I was hoping it was 1986 or later for the life time warranty. At least I believe anything after 1986 has a life time warranty, but if I am mistaken let me know.
Thanks again.

Well just read that the Life Time warranty starts in 1989, Oh well don't think it will ever need a repair anyway.
