686 pre-lock MFG Date......

[Howard_c]

Well, it's been some time since I last posted so it's good to have something to post about! This morning I picked up a pre-lock 686 with 4" barrel. The serial number is AJR9377. Can anyone help with a MFG date?

Thanks,
Howard

That particular date-code is not shown in the SCS&W but it falls between shown July 1985 and Nov 1985.

My guess would be Sept 1985. You know we like pics too !

Thanks 69HEMI

Not so good at pictures, but I'll try. I bought this gun "as is" without box or docs. I assume the Houge grips were after market. Nice and tight. Good trigger. Payed $449.

Nice find! It would have had the speedloader cutout Target stocks as original equipment.

Killer deal. One at Turners in signal hill, CA for the same price if anyone is interested. I'm done for the budget til after christmas unless things pick up first.
