Latest Serial numbers on 15-22

Calling S&W is far faster and more accurate than dragging through this thread. Besides, manufacturing date is much more important than a purchase date.

Is Smith and Wesson the only place to get the manufacturing date? Is the manufacturing date any of the codes on the box and is there a calculator available on-line?

As far as I know, the answers are:

Yes
No
No

I guess I'll be giving Smith and Wesson a call tomorrow. I'm not concerned about modifications that were made to the product, just would like to know. My guess with a DZN, it's some time this year.

Thanks.

The only times date of manufacture would be a concern to me is if I were buying a used firearm more than a couple of years old or a collectable.

My model starts with DVA? Any info on this serial?

What kind of info do you expect? It's a current production firearm.

I agree with major about it means nothing,I have been in contact with S&W,there response was "we do not discus or reveal any production numbers" I was curious about how many were made for other reasons,so Ive been using this thread to monitor the serial break number count to guesstimate my own production numbers.

It should have died long ago, but someone who just wants to see his own post would just start it again.
