Thanks for letting me join. I have a W12 that my father got at a pawn shop I believe back when I was just a little tyke. He gave it to my grandfather who kept it in his closet for the better part of 40 years. When he passed away a few years ago I got the pistol. The only information I have on it is the serial number 689x. I’d love to learn more about it.

Welcome to the Forum from Wisconsin.  Can you upload some pictures?  Also, does it have the original box, paperwork, and tools?

You should either buy a pack of model 12  hand springs from EWK or consider replacing the hand with the later version with a slot for the hand spring. The model 11 a d 12 hand spring wrapped around the hand and rubs against the sideplate causing premature failure. Very inexpensive fix if it happens.

Wow; this is the third W12 to come to the forum in a month! These are awesome revolvers that have their own unique features. This is where it all began for Dan Wesson. Would love to see a photo!!
