Smith & Wesson revolvers were never made in Spain, although many copies were.
To determine the year of manufacture for a Smith & Wesson revolver with a serial number of 188456, additional context is needed, such as the model of the firearm. Generally, Smith & Wesson provides serial number ranges that correspond to specific production years. For example, many revolvers in the 188,000 range were produced in the early 1900s, but for an accurate date, it's best to consult a detailed serial number reference specific to the model in question.
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.
Smith and Wesson made many different models. Would need more information to even begin to answer your question. sales@countrygunsmith.net
