Just bought a 1894 357 in new condition. presafety, SN 2012xxxx. Can anyone tell me when born? Can't wait to shoot this baby! thanks, greg

Should have been manufactured in 1980. "Like new" condition means it was likely a safe queen. Enjoy!

Gunner: Thanks for the quick reply. Did Shooting times do an article on the 1894's? If so, do you know what month-year. thanks again, greg

Greg, not sure. Their search engine is temporarily offline. I would try checking it tomorrow.

Regards, Scott

Subtract 100 from the first two digits of your serial # and you will have the birth date.Keep that in mind for next time because you can't stop at just one! ;D
