Function: 5" Barrel Finish Loss, Average Condition Estimated Year of Manufacture: 1921 Model Line: The .38 Military & Police 4th Change was produced from 1915 through 1942 (with roughly 700,000 to 758,000 units made in this specific change series).Serial Number Placement: Serial number 364105 falls solidly into the early post-WWI era for the K-frame line, sitting right before serial numbers around 400,000 that shipped by 1922.Key Features of This Era: Revolvers from this timeframe typically feature a 5-screw frame, a tapered barrel (common in 4-inch, 5-inch, or 6-inch lengths), and were manufactured before S&W began heat-treating cylinders (meaning standard lead-bullet .38 Special loads should be used rather than high-pressure +P loads). SN: 364105
