[QUOTE="zipty6, post: 3400383, member: 19401"] I may be wrong, but I believe that they made the Model 36 (no dash) and 36-1 concurrently until 1988. The no-dash had the tapered barrel and the -1 had the heavy barrel. If I am reading the book correctly, they alternated the dash numbers on the 36 for tapered/heavy barrels until the change to MIM & the J magnum frame with the 36-9 in 1996. This Model 36 (no dash) with a serial number dating it to 1982 was made after the barrel pin was eliminated: [IMG]https://zipty6.com/36/36a3SM.jpg[/IMG] A square butt 36 no-dash, also from 1982. Unfortunately I had to sell this one in a time of duress. [IMG]https://zipty6.com/36/36SQa2SM.jpg[/IMG] This is a heavy barrel model 36-1 from 1983. Sadly, it got away from me also: [IMG]https://zipty6.com/36/36-1.JPG[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
