Hi-

Any SW revolver experts still here?  PizzaBob?  I am looking to acquire a SW Model 27-2 3.5" revolver and was looking to see what year it is. Serial# is N1178XX. 

Thanks in advance for assistance.

Thanks. I am trying to decypher SW codes also. I am think early 70's, but I am not sure. Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

I figured @Pizza Bob would surely know.

According to the Standard Catalog of S&W, 4rth Edition, the 27-2 with N prefix and 3.5" bbl was made from 1969 to 1978.  I don't see any further breakdown by s/n.  Getting it lettered from S&W would give a reasonably close production date.

Thank you.  I thought I read SW only "letters" for guns up to 1966?   see: https://swhistoricalfoundation.com/letter-process/
