Best Answer

If it is new enough, the model number is stamped on the frame under the crane. Open the cylinder and look at the area below the barrel on the frame. If it is too old, you will have to match the design through pictures (the Modern Gun Values books, for example) or take it to a gunsmith for appraisal. Determine the age will take additional research.
