A coworker has a revolver that got into the family “early 1900s” as an ancestor was a local sheriff and the gun was his duty arm. Personally owned gun, bought when he became sheriff. Timing could put the gun being absolutely anything from a pre-10 back to the older topbreak guns, and coworker is not a gun person, and she only keeps it for sentimental reasons. She asked me if I had ever seen an old Smith and Wesson revolver with clear grips, and I immediately thought of polycarbonate aircraft windshields being used in the wars, but she insists that the grips are S&W factory grips. I have never seen, heard of, or expect to ever hear that S&W ever made clear grips for revolvers, especially in the early 1900s when pressed Bakelite and wood were standard and MOP or ivory were among the expensive options. I just don’t see it being a factory set of grips if they are in fact clear. Was there ever a factory clear grip?
I have asked for pictures.
