I acquired an old S&W revolver to build a bullseye pistol. But it appears that it is older than I first thought. It is a 4' barrel, round butt, four screw sideplate. It has the 'old style' hammer and trigger. It has no markings except the S&W logo on the sideplate, and the serial number 16500 stamped on the butt. I think is is a 'Victory' model, but I am not sure. Does anyone know how I could go about dating it by the serial number? I would really like to find out if parts are still available before I start working on it.

This is a picture. Serial numbers located on bottom of handle, on the cylinder, and where the cylinder comes out. Of the barrel it has smith and wesson springfield mass usa under that it says patent feb,6,06 sept 14,09 dec 29 14. All the help is appreciated! Smith And Wesson 38 Special Ctg Gun Values Board.
