S&W M&P 40 question-------

[Maddog 521]

Can you tell me the date of manufacture for a M&P 40 with a serial number DTZ59XX? Thanks

 

[cracker57]

did you buy it used? if you have the test fire casing that would be very close to the Manufacture date.

It would also be on the box label.

 

[Maddog 521]

There is no box or docs. Some of these guns are marked "stainless" on the slide and some aren't. Why are some stamped and some not?

 

[Clete Torres]

Simply a production run change. The slides are still stainless steel, they're simply not run through the stamping step as a cost/time-saving measure as demand has been high.

Call S&W and they can tell you the build date on your piece.

2010 would be the build year.

Thanks for all the comments. I guess I should buy it. I'm looking for a hi-cap to travel with. Thanks again
