HELP!!!
I have recently aquired a 4" S&W revolver. It has no model number, but it is marked with 38 S. & W. Special CTG on the right side of the barrel, made in U.S.A. lower right side and S&W trade mark on the right side plate. On the left side of the barrel is marked SMITH & WESSON. On the top of the barrel is the address and patent numbers. The sites are fixed front large blade type, the rear is notch type cut into the top strap. The grips are checkered wood square. The trigger is grooved. The serial number on the botton of the frame is C (forward on the grip frame) 2289. Can someone give me the approximate date of manufacture and the correct model if any. Any other info or history would be appreciated.
I also aquired another S&W revolver, all the same info as the above, except has a 6 inch barrel, a brass lanyard ring in the front bottom of the grip frame. It has a serial number of S912945.
Thanks in advance....Rack
