NO RESERVE!! Here's a Pre-WWII Smith & Wesson ".38 Regulation Police" revolver. Built on the small I-frame with five screws, this handy little revolver chambers the .38 S&W cartridge and wears a 4-inch pinned barrel with fixed service sights. It has a 5-shot cylinder and features a unique grip frame with incorporates a "step" in the back strap allowing it to accomodate the extended length grips. These unique grips cover the butt of the revolver so the serial number is relocated to the front strap on this model. All serial numbered parts are matching although I cannot make out a number on the grips. This revolver is factory nickel finished and remains in very good shape. There is the normal handling wear with the usual small surface marks but the gun still retains about 95% of the original nickel finish. There is one small flake along the rear of the cylinder and some rust spots beneath the grips but overall the pistol has a very good appearance. Case colors are still present on both hammer and trigger. The original grips are in very good shape and are properly marked "PAT. JUNE 5. 1917" along the base. The mechanics appear to be in good working order with good timing and lock-up. The bore is in very good shape with bright, sharp rifling. These were manufactured between 1917-1940 with a serial range of 1 - 54474.
