I just bought a Model 21, double trigger/extractor with serial number 23--. I would like to know when it was made. I looked in Schwing's book but couldn't find a table. Anybody know?

According to the George Madis booklet, 1934.

The Frame was made in March or April of 1931. However, the gun was likely completed at some later time, two or three years or more.

Thank you. I would like to get a letter on this gun and I will certainly contact the Cody Museum.

Since we are on the subject, has anyone done this recently? How much do they charge for a letter on a Model 21 these days? Just curious............ Thanks
