Thanks to those of you identifying my S&W M&P 1908 HE circa 1928. The next questions have to do with the rear sight, mine is fixed but there is a groove cut just in front to accomadate a removable rear sight, is this common or is this maybe a target gun?
Also I am curious about what the stamping on the butt frame might signify. Left side has a W and a 4. The other side has 5 B 1 0 J. Is this something I would have to find out by a factory letter?
