The serial number is 48J3XX Thanks in advance.:cheers: Couldn't find a Model 36 SN that is like yours. 1950-1969 shows 5-6 digit numbers with no letters and 1969-1983 all SN's start with J. Does show that the 36-1 started in 1967. Aug 19, 2013 Thank you for your question. According to Smith and Wesson records for the Model 39-2, serial number A156666 was made between 1972 and 1973. My goal is to provide you with excellent service today. If there’s anything else I can do, let me know. It’s been a pleasure working with you and I hope to assist you again soon!

S&W serial number. Date manuf?
I've got an old S&W snub nosed .38. Right side of barrel: 'S.& W. SPL. Left side: 'SMITH&WESSON'. Frame numbers and barrel support match. Serial # on butt is 1018. That's it. Nothing else. No one but no one can tell me what I've got as far as year. 'There has to be a prefix number'. Nope, it's very clearly stamped. Been on all the S&W sites. Most are very confusing. Any ideas.

That number just straight up for a .38 Special Hand Ejector M&P falls in the 1899-1902 range. Not saying that's exactly what you have.

I don't know the frame and see no number model, but it's a 3 screw. Thanks!

Look here. It's a very well explained guide for identifying your S&W.

Everything in there shows a letter designation. There's nothing on mine.

3 visible screws in the sideplate..sounds like a postwar 38, but pre model 10. That's assuming a swing out cylinder, hand ejector. Without a pic, it's a little difficult. I am going to check out above links. PB

Looks like an early 36. Doesn't have the model number on the yoke/crane area?

I'm not a gun person by any stretch of the imagination, so explain to me what a yoke/crane is.

Open the cylinder, and look at the part of the frame that is normally covered.

It is a 4 screw. The 4th screw is hidden by the grip.

Actually, it is a five screw. The fifth screw is forward of the trigger guard. It is a pre- model 36, Chief's Special, flat latch. Manufactured starting 1951, fifth screw eliminated in 1953.
The serial number range is in the first two years of production. Information from Standard catalog of Smith & Wesson.

Thank you everyone. Very informative. This was given to me many years ago. Now onto deciding what to do with it. Probably back in the drawer.

You can look on the site 'gun broker,' and get an idea of the value. S & W have increased in recent years.

It's a great little nightstand gun. 38 Specials are nice rounds to shoot and the Smith is the perfect gun to shoot them with!
