Welcome to the DWF !!!  We'll need the serial number to date your DW.  The model 14 is a great gun for CCW with a snubby barrel.

welcome aboard Johnson…I see from your screen name that you're a fancier of the sea-going boats. Probably from around the Boston area? Yep, gotta love those salty-aqua type vessels, I suppose. Haven't been there myself.slap

 

As Shoot said, let's hear the number on your dinghy…we can probably figure out which approximate year it was made.wink

Welcome to the forum, if you can't find the answers to your questions here they won't be found anywhere. There are some very smart folks that hang out here, with more information about DW revolvers than anywhere else on the internet, I don't happen to be one of them thats why I hang out here to learn. Welcome and good luck.

Looks like you have a Model 14 Porkchop, which would be a fixed sight gun from 1975 ~ 1972. Judging from the s/n, I'm betting it's closer to the 1975 end. Should be (and looks like) a satin blue finish service revolver.

Any larger pics available? The Grips are aftermarket...most likely Pachmayr, which isn't bad & are usually comfy.smile
