Okay, I just noticed this last night. There's a strange mark on the barrel of my 25-5. I bought this gun used, and it's had a lot of use, I can see.
But on the left side of the barrel, where "Smith & Wesson" is stamped, there's sort of like a "ghost image" of the words "Smith & Wesson", a little bit to the right. You have to hold the barrel just right to see it, as the light has to reflect off of it just so. It looks like, I don't know, the barrel once had "Smith & Wesson" printed on it, but then was reblued and had "Smith & Wesson" stamped over it.
Any ideas?
