You have a post war .38 Military & Police revolver manufactured between 1945 & 1948. In a modified form this is still manufactured as the S&W Model 10.
The S stands for Safety - an internal hammer block was fitted to all S&Ws after late 1944 that prevents it from firing if dropped on the hammer. Literally millions of these guns were made, so value is not great, in 2006 the standard catalog of S&W gave a value of $300 in excellent condition.
