Greetings -
I’m new to the forum. I’m wondering if someone could advise the year of manufacture of a S&W Model 29-2, Serial Number 385XXX
Thanks very much.

Welcome to the Forum.

What is the letter prefix, "S" or "N", taken from the butt? The letter is part of the serial number.

My mistake - I thought that the serial number on the yoke was complete. The # from the butt is N385XXX.
Thanks very much for the help.

Should be 1975-76 per the 4th edition.

Thanks very much.
I have the 5th edition on preorder for the next time.

Also -

Any idea where I could find a set of nickel plated side plate screws for the same revolver? I was able to find stainless, but would prefer nickel to match.

Thanks Again
