The only.38 spl Smith and Wessons in that serial number range were produced in 1903 and 1904 as the Smith and Wesson.38spl Hand Ejector M&P. They look like Model 10\'s, and are very similar, but predate the Model 10 by over 50 years. I have a 686-4 with the serial number BRMxxxx. My copy of the \'Standard Catalog of Smith & Wesson\' has no entry for the \'BRM\' prefix, but it seems that the gun was produced after August 1994, based on what is listed. Is there another resource I could look to for this information, without going directly to S&W? Thanks, -Phil.
