Popped up in a local classified ad today, so I bought it.
Looks to be a M&P model from probably around 1916-1917.
The kid selling it was savvy and held to his price.
I even tried the old "Well, this is all the cash I brought" trick.
Ended up going inside the hardware store nearby and getting another $20 cash with my debit card.
Serial number on the cylinder matches the frame.
Grips say: "Sports Inc. Chicago"
Barrel appears to have been shortened, front sight's been reinstalled, probably refinished in nickel.
Somewhere in the past someone fancied up their Smith. Imagine that?
