Fixed front and adjustable rear sight and one-piece grip. The right side of the barrel has the 50th anniversary marking and the right side of the frame has a golden crusader emblem. With a wooden case lined in red velvet. Consignor notes state that this is a limited edition (only 500) with this example being a prototype for line of guns to compete in the Dirty Harry era with S&W N-frame. Few are ever seen for sale in .45 Colt than .44 Mag.

Near new original blue finish with a slight drag line on the cylinder and only a few light handling/storage marks overall. The grip is excellent with a few small marks. Mechanically excellent. The case is very good with scattered minor scratches and dings.
