S&W revolver model reference

[RodSS]

Are there any reference books listing S&W model and dash number, years made, total made etc?

Yes.
STANDARD SMITH AND WESSON CATALOG, version III

It is on Amazon, both hard copy or Kindle version.

I have it on my computer, tablet and phone.

The Standard Catalog does not give production totals (except for certain special editions), but otherwise is a great resource through 2005 for various models and dashes (the 3rd edition was copyrighted 2006).
