Thanks for the quick response. Not sure I'm' the person to disassemble but will look into what it takes. From what I can tell, all of the external numbers match. We removed the grips, wondering if they were numbered. Appears to be 67 stamped in the wood. Any thoughts on that?

The grips would have had "49" inside when made, so the grips are replaced somewhere/sometime. Well I am guessing the serial number ends in 49, but I can't see the entire serial, it is on the front of the frame, bottom of barrel and left side. Those pictures would be good to post.

Welcome to the board.

Do read the stickys for info and what questions to answer and which pictures are important, they are in the new collector forum.
