S&W Model 29 memories

<< < (2/2)

depserv:
Sorry about your loss; may our Savior take your brother into his arms and comfort his survivors.

I have a Smith & Wesson .357 that I bought years ago as a police trade-in.  The barrel is 4".  There is nothing on it that tells me the model number or frame size.  If I wasn't so ignorant about revolvers I'd probably know just by looking but I don't.  So how do I find out those things?

Ghost:
I'm sorry for your loss DenmanShooter.  I'm glad for your Model 29 memories with your brother though.

depserv: newer Smiths (since 1957) should have a model number stamped in the yoke cutout.  You should see it when you open the cylinder.  If it's older than 1957, it should have a model name on it somewhere.

Thanks!  Model 65-3 I guess.  There is a U stamped above that; does that signify anything?  Just curious.
