Serial Number Lookup

[retlaw357]

Just got my 686+ 3-5-7 series in 5”. Love the revolver so far and don’t see any issues with it like barrel cant and so forth. Pretty pleased considering I ordered online and never saw it first.

Tried searching for some manufacturing dates by serial number but couldn’t find anything. Serial number is DJB94XX, any general manufactured date?

Thanks!

Walter

on the box label, under the Model (M686) should be a six digit number, that is the ship date.

You said May, but what was the 6-digit date code?

I have the same 686 you have... Talo 5” with the unfluted barrel. One of my favorite firearms! The 5” is the sweet spot.

Where do I go to find date of manufacture?

Thanks in advance for any help. I can get to 1970 but don't know if that's correct
