I saw today a nice used P229 but the serial number and its manufactured date is alluding.
The serial number is AK 17 490 . It’s on the frame just like that with those spaces in the numbers. Anyone got an idea ?
I tried using the list above but couldn’t find anything.
Thanks in advance.

There is one similar on the list that shows a date of March of 2000.

Best way to know for sure is to see if it has the original grips and if they have a time stamp wheel embossed on the inside of each panel.

Thanks for the reply. It only has one mag with it but the price is $250.00 and the finish is probably 98% . 40 cal though. ☹️

Nice!

With getting a deal like that, it leaves plenty of room for a conversion barrel or a caliber swap.

I may be very biased to the 229 in my collection of shooters but ... ...

Buy that one pronto!!!!

You will be glad you did.
Such a minimal investment allows
as said above many options for you to enjoy
it being whatever you can utilize the most.

Man, I'd snap that up in a hurry.

Got it for $250.00 out the door . Zero holster wear on the outside. Just need some mags now .
