[Allen-frame]

Hello friends.

It appears to be the same roll stamp on all these different models .

List updated on 7/4/2015 .............

So far I have documented a model 13 , 14 , 17 , 19 , 31 , 36 ,36-1 , 37 , 64-1 and a 66 .

And another 31-1 very close in serial number to mine.

The model 17 serial is 8K73800 ,

The model 31-1 serial is H112355 ,

The model 36 serial is J428662 ,

The model 37 serial is J542430 ,

The model 64-1 serial is 1D6816 .


1975 ?

Here are the pictures.


Mod 36 .................................

























Model 37 3 inch square butt ...


And you can tell the model 37 easily as the barrel ,cylinder and yoke are shinier
than the frame which almost looks black by comparison ..
































The model 31-1 in 32 ctg.






















And the model 17-3 from the same time frame..










What about a model 14 barrel. Found in a junk box at a show . . .

I've never seen this before. You've piqued my interest though now I'm gonna start looking for that.

Very nice group of guns.
Just had to look at my guns and found my model 31 has the same stamping.

Almost looks like the "3" punch was rotated 180 degrees. Never noticed it before. I'll have to check my guns after the gunshow tomorrow. Joe
