Is the serial is between 33804 and 62449?

SN is 651xx, there is a 4 under the SN and the letter N to the upper right.

That number comes from the bottom of the grip? And is there a screw in the trigger guard?

Just the factory 22 Jet cylinder and 22LR inserts.
How bout a May 21, 1956 Pre 19 Combat Magnum, in the box with all tools and paperwork?




I must say a 25-2 is one of my favs...

Whew, I think I just broke out in a sweat.

Duh on me. I gave the number of another revo to get posted later. Picked up the wrong pistol.
The sn on the grip of the CORRECT gun is 3124xx.
The number stamped into the frame under the extractor collar is 12905.
Yes, there is a screw in the trigger guard.

I think it's a 38 M&P model of 1905-4th change. Numbers are from 241704 to 1000000. Made from 1915 to 1942.
I'd say a guesstimate would be 1917ish production

Don, this isn't a competition! I just like looking at old smiths. Tell me about that model 28,at least I think it's a 28 or is it a 27?
I'm thinking that a 3 inch model 36?

LOL! j/k

Yeah, 3" Model 36, and I do have the original grips for it. It just feels much better shooting with these grips (and it DOES get shot!)

Yes, 4" Model 28. Oddly enough, the model # is double struck, 27 over 28.

That would make it 100 years old, and certainly worthy of the title classic revolver.
