    Well R should be November and the second R could be 1924 or 1968 or 1997. Kind of have to know the era of your gun. Thats what my info says

    Factory might tell ya sumpin with that serial # but usually go by bbl code only. Least thats what I have been told. Like I said Factory may have sumpin more specific. Looks to me like your year is right

    742's were made from 1960 to 1980 or so.
    It has to be a 1968.
