Can anyone help me identify what year my S/W 5904 was built? I know there is a book out there but I only have this one question so my FRUGAL self doesn't want to buy it. Help??

What's the serial range? -
Only thing I can find infers the gun was made post-1982. The "TDD" means nothing by itself, simply part of the sn.
I'd call S&W on Monday and ask.True wealth is time. Time to enjoy life.

Try asking someone at Smith-Wesson.com
Some members have the book and offer to check.Originally posted by Kestryll:

You have what's called the "triple-alpha" serial number range. Referred to in the SCSW as the "dreaded" triple-alpha series. Not a whole lot of rhyme and reason behind them. A TBZ will be the same year THB and before a TFB. Very aggravating. i see no TDD listed and only one TD anything under the serial number section- a TDH for 1990. There are some TBs listed for 1988 and TCs listed for 1989. I wouldn't bet my life or (since I don't have an ex-wife or a mother in law) anyone else's but 1990 seems as good a guess as can be.
The catalog section for the 5904 lists product codes by year, if you have the box. I also see alot of TDA serial numbers starting in 1991.Last edited by dfletcher; 08-01-2019, 10:22 PM.GOA Member & SAF Life MemberComment

Shameless plug...
There great guns. If you do score it and are in an area where standard mags are legally acceptable, I've got 4 or 5 mags left over from a 9mm carbine I sold a while ago. You can pm or email me from here.True wealth is time. Time to enjoy life.
