This may be of help, the logo will give you a time frame when the gun was manufactured

Great!! Thank you, ‘49-‘73

Here is the pistol.

looks like a 1949 - 1973. It looks like an oldie.
I always thought this logo looked more like a cow than a bid strapping bull.

Not to steal Erick's thunder (he is the identification guru on this site) but the serial number chart appears in several places here on TA.net.

N=.45
Y=2005
J=October


Link to one of the many postings of the chart:

https://www.taurusarmed.net/threads/how-to-decipher-taurus-serial-number.123728/

This chart is good for older model semi-autos (maybe 2020 and before). You used to be able to go to the Taurus web site and enter your serial number, get a born on date as well as the manufacturers model number and description. When they moved to GA, they "lost" all the records and also changed their serial number scheme. Another win for customer service!

He spoke the truth.
Your IMxxxxxx was made January 2015
For revolvers.
In 2007 the alpha prefix restarted at "A" (for year) -again since 1981 - (26 yrs later), and month January started with "M" instead of ("A" used in 1981), "N" for February, and so on.
I= 2015
M= January

S= July

Please post it here. I can search in the official Taurus manual.

The letters before the serial number are enough to search the month and year of production. You don't need post the complete SN.

I’m wondering if you can tell me the year and month of a Taurus 38 Special with a serial number starting with MF…?

My stepdad gave me a Taurus revolver. I think the serial is 701276. It’s difficult to make out

June, 1993

I have a .32 caliber with 701276 stamped on the frame. Is that the serial number and if so can you tell me anything about it? My stepdad left it to me after he passed away.

Our resident Brazilian expert will assist you with your serial number. It’s an oldie, probably from the 70s or early 80s.

Thank you! Is there a way to identify the model by using the serial number? There is no model name or number on it. I'm trying to order an IWB holster for it.

 

[LDB]

It's the new date code adopted from October, 2019.
Two first letters are the year, starting with AA in 2019. AD means 2022.

Third letter is the month (from A to L). J means October.

Wow. I've got two Taurus revolvers made in July 2026! They are both AHG S/Ns.
