Does anyone have text or knowledge of the assignees whose service/action codes are marked on the outer interior radius of S&W revolver frames, visible when the grip panels are removed? I have a P&R late built Model 29 with nine such codes. It has 100% engraved coverage. Seems that logic would support that there is a code book somewhere that identifies the assignee and action taken which signifies and explains the code marking. The gun is lettered and even though Roy Jinks and I discussed at length and he addressed this issue, we have not found any explanation of the codes.......Would appreciate your comments and or explanation to this matter.

Very interesting as to what they might be .
