Serial Numbers

There is very little information available regarding production number history for Dan Wesson Arms.  This is due to the fact that the ATF seizes those types of records when a firearms manufacturer goes out of business.  In an attempt to piece together the production history of Dan Wesson revolvers members of the Dan Wesson Forum have been compiling purchase information from original owners to determine a general production date.
