Recently come to my hands an 38 S&W special ctg revolver, but I cant find any model on the gun, inside the frame there's only what appears to be assy numbers.
The only number I got for sure is the serial: "C34XXXX"
It's has a 4'' barrel, a fixed serrated front sight, black finish, the legend:
MADE IN USA
MARCAS REGISTRADAS
SMITH & WESSON
SPRINGFIELD MASS
When you look inside the frame, you'll expect to se something like 10 - xx
I found that for the prefix "C" on the serial says tha it was made before 1949.
But I want to know more than that..
=D
My mistake... I mean it was made after 1949, maybe earlys 50's, when the "C" prefix replaces de previous "S" prefix on the serials.
The numbers stamped under the crane are the model numbers, not assembly numbers, its usually the number on the lower of the two. If you dont understand, try taking it to a gun store with a moderately knowledgable staff. Its usually 3 digits for the newer models, but there are variations.
Based on your partial serial number and description, im guessing its a K frame (medium) from the mid 1950's. The 'marcas registradas' means registered trademark in spanish and was standard for many years as there were a great number of inferior spanish made knock offs.
