J979,xxx fits into the 1982 serial number range as reported by Supica and Nahas.
With the standard warning that S&W did not always ship in exact serial number sequence.
One of the best reasons to post such scenarios is to discuss the pros and cons of various actions before something happens in the hopes of giving the next potential "victim" some good advice tohelp them survive.

BTW, thanks for your service. And...
Had a complete casehead separation with a (are you ready?) Glock 23. The base went flying whicle the rest of the case remained in the chamber. Took a few minutes to figure out what happened and how to get it out.
