Model 17-4 serial Number

[Nick48]

Hello I purchased a S&W MODEL 17-4 with the serial number 99K2175 I looked this up in my Standard Catalog of S&W and I see 9K2175 would fit in 1976, 77, 78 ?? so my Question is why does it hav two 9's 99K???? and 4 digits after the K this is a 8 3/8" barrel NIB with all 8 pc's of paperwork cleaning rod, tools and screwdriver in unsealed plastic bag in two pc blue box with correct end label in unfired condition, also A in circle with number 04548 and A10 markings

Just serial numbers sequencing, by the time they got to yours they were at 99K which is 1981. We love pictures. . . .

Can you post pics of the serial number on the butt of the grip as well as in the crane cutout?

Thanks for the reply I see its 1981 now that you pointed it out, I just didn't look at it long enough, I got hung up on the 99K and didn't fit it in the 1981 91K6801-124K000 Thank you
