Using these tables together, you should be able to narrow down a decent range of when your gun is from. These are model changes, meaning some feature or aspect of the gun changed a bit.ġ0-11 started in 1997 (probably not this or later, since your gun is blue) If you find the 10-1, or 10-8, or 10-XY, you can narrow it down a bit further.

If it has a one or two digit number, and THEN a "D," and THEN some more numbers, (meaning the "D" will be either the second or third character in the serial, and all other characters are numbers) it is from 1977-1983Īfter 1983 the serials get crazy and will be in the format of three letters, and then four numbers. The S&W Model 12 2 is a revolver from the line of K-frame Smith & Wesson revolvers. If it starts with "D" and has only numbers after the "D," the gun is from 1968-1977.

Since we are assuming it is a model 10, that is where I'll start the serial ranges. Before 1957, it wouldn't say "10, or Model 10" or anything like that anywhere on it.

Also, if you open the cylinder, it will reveal a piece of metal on the left (probably where you got the 4 digit number) Under, or above that, there might be a number along with your 10. 'Pre-10', 'Victory', no model number 'M&P' definately are. (never two, and if it has zero letters, then it actually pre-dates the model 10) A model 10 WILL ALWAYS have either one or three letters in it. Solid NRA Good condition with hand select option getting you closer to Very. The serial of a model 10 will have AT LEAST one letter in it, and will almost certainly be 7 characters total.

The actual serial number will be on the butt - the very bottom of the gun's grip. The assembly numbers helped the people at the factory keep track of what parts went to what gun. The 4 digit number you've posted is an assembly number.
