Warned you I did, foolish I'd look.  laugh

 

Thank God Shoot stepped in and stopped my embarrassing display.

 

Which gets me to trying to find a comprehensive list of Dan Wesson revolver models.  (No slight intended to the pistoleros; it's just my poor brain still doesn't have the revolvers down yet.)

 

Starting with the serial number list and adding what I've seen mentioned here I see the following models

 

11      - caliber 357   - pork external nut

12      - caliber 357   - pork external nut

14      - caliber 357   - pork internal nut (?)

14-2   - caliber 357

15      - caliber 357   - pork internal nut (?)

15-2   - caliber 357

15-2 fixed barrel

22      - caliber 22

What's the model number for the 22 Magnum?

32      - caliber 32

What's the model number for the 32-20 caliber?

What's the model number for the Li'l Dan?

360      - caliber ?

709      - 38 caliber

714 Action Cup - caliber 357

714 PPC (What is this?)

714     - caliber 357

715     - caliber 357

715 fixed barrel

722     - caliber 22

41       - caliber 41

44       - caliber 44

45       - caliber 45

741     - caliber 41

744     - caliber 44

745     - caliber 45

40       - caliber 357 Supermag

375     - caliber 375 Supermag

Is the blued 41 Supermag a 414?

445     - caliber 44 Supermag

What's the 460 Rowland?

740     - caliber 357 Supermag

Is there a 7375?

7414    - caliber 41 Supermag

7445    - caliber 44 Supermag

7445 AGS - What is this?

 

Why do I sometimes see some models designated with a D or a W?

 

What else am I missing?

 

I may put this is a spreadsheet so I can add data like serial numbers and years of production and factory.  Who knows someday I may actually know something about Dan's.  laugh

Thanks Ron.  

 

I scrolled right past when I tried it myself.  The drop down menu came out and I never even thought of clicking on the main link.  Duh!

There are also the 14-1 and 15-1

"D" and "W" are designations of the earliest production models of Dan Wesson revolvers.

I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman "Were is the Self Help Section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

95XL883, that's an impressive DW model list. Probably the most complete I've seen posted to date.occasion

I can only pick out one Palmer model that's not included in your list...the 14/714 Fixed Barrel  

This particular model is really an elusive little bugger...so far, I've only seen this model a couple times in the 714 Snubby variation, however I am confident that more varying examples exist. wink

Just 2 15-2s and 3 barrels, though I'd like a 14 with a 2 1/2 or 4 barrel for carry.
