Well, the recent thread asking about a "working man's" revolver got me thinking.
I have many that fit the description but I had no pre model number S&W revolvers.
A local shop had a 6 inch barrel pre M10 advertised so I stopped in to look. I'm not a big fan of the 6 inch barrel. I much prefer a 4 inch with fixed sights.
Guess what they had on consignment?
S/N puts it around 1930.
As you can see the grips are not original but feel pretty good with the Tyler adapter.
I will track down some period correct grip panels sooner or later.
It shows significant wear of the bluing but locks up nicely with no real end play.
I can't wait to shoot it.
