Hi everyone new to the forum, I recently acquired a Dan Wesson. Monson frame serial number 307066 and have tried figuring out what it is but haven’t had much luck. Any info would be appreciated thanks!

Welcome!

Model 15-2.   Most likely a 357 Mag.   By ser# some of the *last Monson frames built up at the Monson plant.

Plenty of parts available to build it back up.

*(Monson frames were transferred to the Palmer plant and used until supply was exhausted)

Are they aftermarket EWK shrouds?  

Nowhere near the quality of EWK.  Most likely, someone experimenting at home/ shop to make the PPC style shroud.  

Technically, the glass is always full; half liquid, half air....
