Based on Rossi's site, the serial number pulls this info. The 6513 number is not contained in the serial number in any variation. Rossi 38 special 1986 M66 N6 Picked up this. The '6513' is also stamped on the frame under the stocks, on the inside of the lockplate, on the rear of the cylinder (in addition to the 'I'), and is also marked in pencil on both the left and right wooden stocks. The crane is stamped '6513,' which I believe is a manufacturing number of some kind, perhaps used to keep major components together during assembly.

The frame is stamped under the crane pivot with both 'M88' and 'M885,' with the 'M885' in slightly larger font.
