I have been trying to adsorb as much information as possible on the Dan Wesson revolvers and this forum is by far the largest collection of information and knowledgeable people any Dan Wesson fan could ever imagine. Thanks for letting me join.  2015-02-08_22-21-58_592.jpgImage Enlarger

Welcome Bob, thanks for coming to New Members first.

Looks like a 15-2 and maybe a 714 in your pictures?

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.

Yep, these guys know their stuff. Anything you want to know, someone on this forum is the expert!  I'm new to the DW firearms, and certainly learned a bunch!

Thank you all for the warm welcome. I am very anxious to learn all I can about my Dan Wesson revolvers. Steve CT commented on my 15-2  I was confident that it was a 15-2 (the only way i knew was it came in a DW box that was labeled 15-2 an had the proper serial # 1252XX ) and would like to find out what year it was manufactured. The Stainless 714 ?  I am not so sure on i don't really know the difference the serial # on that one is sd0068XX. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The 714 is the fixed sight, ss,  version of the 15-2...  here's a good thread to read while your surfing.

The 15-2 is probably 1978, possibly 1979

the 714  is probably 1982, the first year of Stainless DW revolvers

Glad you found us, and glad to have you on board.  There is strength in numbers.  Nice looking Dan's, and they appear to remember how to shoot properly too. laugh
