The revolver exhibits outstanding near full custom deep cut scroll engraving on fine stippled background. Gold inlaid bands decorate the barrel at the breech and muzzle. Additional gold bands along with a platinum band are featured on the rear of the cylinder. The revolver is fitted with a handsome set of S&W medallion smooth rosewood target grips. Includes a non-engraved 6 inch solid rib S&W barrel in .22 LR.

Rating Definition:

Very fine as professionally embellished by Floyd E. Warren with 98% plus of the blue finish remaining. The grips are excellent with limited handling marks. The extra barrel is excellent. Mechanically excellent. A very attractive work of late 20th century firearms artistry.
