Early transitional from looking at the hammer. I don't have my SCSW handy but I'm guessing your date is close.

Post-war S prefix guns ran from '45-'49 serial numbers from 811,120- 999,999,so 1948 would be my guess also. Nice lookin' gun Dan. I had it's twin,but sold it off.

Very nice Dan. Mine is S991656 and it shipped in March 1948. Bring it to the October meet, okay?
I was standing right there as this deal went down. Nice catch, it even has the box. Larry
Helpful Hints brochure
Very nice gun Dan!!!!
I would like to ask a favor.......do you believe the Helpful Hints brochure was packaged with the gun originally? If yes, then could you please show a picture of the parts diagram on the back page. Also would you measure the EXACT size of the paper unfolded. I (and others) have recently been trying to determine the time periods that these brochures were used. Some have print dates and others don't.
Thank you for your time and consideration;
Mike

good question and I would NOT "swear" to it as thats "how it came" as I do not "know" the seller, in this case trader/swapper......he wanted my 1948 K-22....oh well "money talks and BS walks...."
as for the 'Helpful Hints' it is 7 1/8 high(tall) and it is 7 5/8 inch wide (across)
here is some other paper 'stuff' we picked up............
a "bullseye target", decal, the paper liner? in English and Spanish and the early, NO "zip code" warranty card.........

Dan;
Does the picture of the gun on the parts diagram have a single line address or the 4 line address? Is there a printing date referenced in the lower right hand corner of the diagram?

I have it's twin #S980271 in about the same condition with box, etc. Got it from my dad a long time ago. Not to be nosey but I'm curious as to worth? Can't remember for sure what I gave him for it. I think around $250. Haven't fired it since.
