I'm helping an INGO friend out by selling his SW revolver, a sweet piece.
I'm trying to get the ad together & have a question about its date.
The owner says he was told it was manufactured around 1977-1979.
Serial # on the box matches the serial # on the gun: "1K31831"
What caught my eye is that inside the box lid is printed a:
"Statement of Liability"
&
"Warranty" Statement.
Dated 1955.
Also, inside the box is also a Warranty Card a buyer can fill out & mail to SW.
Dated 1955.
Pics included below hopefully.
I didn't know whether the date that is on the inside of the box lid & the card has no relationship to the date of manufacture.
Perhaps it is just the date SW started printing those 2 statements on the box & the date on the Warranty card (like a copyright date)???
I want to verify that all the "Statements" that are printed on the inside of the box & on the Warranty Card that's sent in have nothing to do with the current date just incase you gun is mid 50s.
