Been buying, selling and trading S&W revolvers for over 45 years but never had a J frame only K, L and N frames. In the last month I have purchased 2, a Model 49 Bodyguard and a Model 36 Chiefs Special. The 49 I got off an auction site and the 36 I got from a gun show from a dealer who I have , over several years, purchased over half of my 18 S&W revolvers from. My thanks to Two-Bit Cowboy who checked my serial numbers in the J frame database. The 49 is from Oct 1986 and the 36 is from the late summer, early fall of 1963. The 49 was gun only with Uncle Mikes aftermarket grips. The 36, however, has the original box, vapor paper and instruction booklet, but no tools. The 36 stocks are serialed to gun.
