Smith and Wesson will tell you if you call them
Smith and Wesson makes parts in batches. There is no guarantee that a frame made and serial numbered today will be built today. The best you can do is to get the approximate date it was shipped from Smith and Wesson to a distributor. If you had provided the serial number, an answer could be given.
That all depends on what kind of Smith & Wesson it is.
