Far as I recall reading or noting...1880s through 1920s, and even well past that, the majority of Police in U.S. Cities, if Armed at all, carried small frame Double Action Iver Johnsons and S&Ws and Colts, in five shot, .32 or .38 S&W Chamberings...with 6 shot .38 Special Revolvers being less common.


Marshals or Law Men in rural areas or out West would tend to carry larger frame Models, in larger Calibers.
 
I'll just leave this here...
