I would require much more info to answer your question.Please start with the fact that I am not aware of any Smith and Wesson serial numbers starting with the letter V.Please include the type of Smith and Wesson you have(revolver,semi-auto pistol),the barrel length,the caliber,how many shot if a pistol,the caliber of your Smith and Wesson etc.I can then start to look and find a answer for you.
Email smith and Wesson for the answer
