Hello Everyone

 

I just signed up today.  I may be a new Dan Wesson owner.  I say "may be" because the gun has Dan Wesson Arms, Monson Mass, Model 14, Made in U.S.A. stamped on it.  I understand Dan Wesson didn't stamp model numbers on the guns, and the Model 14 stamp is where I expected to see the serial number.  If anyone can help me figure out what I have here I would really appreciate it.  There is a 5 digit number on the other side of the gun but that's it.  messagepart.jpgImage Enlarger

Yes the older "pork chops" did have the model # for a short time. And that number under your crane is the serial.

We have a few pork guru's that will be by soon.

Welcome to the forum from PA. Like Blacktop said the early models did have the model stamped on them. Looks like your new Dan is in very nice shape for its age.

Thanks for the info, guys.  I feel better now.  This is my first revolver; from everything I've read here and in other places online it looks like I made a good choice.  This is a great forum, and you guys are really helping out us newbies with all of the expertise!  Thanks again.
