Good Afternoon David,
First Issue marked guns when manufactured after Bob Serva purchased Wesson Firearms in 1996. I don't believe manufacturing started until 1997 or 1998 because the company was moved from Palmer, MA to Norwich, NY.
I have a few First Issue guns that were made around 2000.
Hope this helps and welcome to the forum!
Jody

Agreed, we'd love to see some
There haven't been many 1st issue 740 guns to surface lately, so info other than what Jody has posted is till sketchy. Sorry.
