So what do y'all think is the story behind this piece?
http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=163389690
from the description: For sale is: A Model 28-2 Smith & Wesson Highway Patrolman in .357 magnum. The unusual thing with this is that the frame is clearley stamped as a model 29-2 (.44 magnum).
So is this an error by Smith & Wesson? Or did someone along the way swap out the barrel and cylinder from a model 28 on a 29 frame?
The seller claims its a factory error and shows all the numbers match, but I didn't think there was a serial number on the barrel or cylinder?
