Smith And Wesson Model 1903 Serial Numbers

The only.38 spl Smith and Wessons in that serial number range were produced in 1903 and 1904 as the Smith and Wesson.38spl Hand Ejector M&P. They look like Model 10's, and are very similar, but predate the Model 10 by over 50 years. Jun 16, 2009 Mr.Borland is correct on the serial number time frame, so I have to assume you have a 1954-1956 gun. The Second Model.32 Hand Ejector (No Change) was made from 1903 to 1904, and the serial number range extends from 1 to 19,425. Second Model.32 Hand Ejector - Model 1903 - First Change Smith & Wesson was in a time of nearly continuous innovation, and made incremental changes to improve the Second Model.32 Hand Ejector for nearly two decades. He had a Colt.25, a Mossberg single shot.22LR rifle, a S&W top break in.32 Short S&W and this Model 30 in.32 S&W Long. Both the Break top and this one looked brand new. So I called him up, we met, and I am the new owner of a S&W Model 30 I-frame.32 S&W Long (Model 1903) serial number 287XXX. Should have bough the Top Break too!

Recall[edit]

Smith Wesson Serial Number Search

In 1987, seven years after the release of the Model 686, there were reports of cylinder binding with some types of standard .357 Magnum ammunition for L-frame revolvers manufactured before August 1987. S&W put out a product warning and authorized a no-charge upgrade to make modifications to the revolver. All recalled and reworked guns were stamped with an M marking, signifying that they had been recalled and fixed; thus it is known as the M modification for all 686, 686-1, 586-1, and 586-2 revolvers.[7]
