Five screw model manufactured from 1917 to 1940. Standard factory barrel and frame markings with the 1917 patent date correctly stamped on the bottom of the left grip panel. Blue finish with casehardened hammer and trigger. Fitted with checkered grips. It has a correct type S&W .38 Regulation Police box but is numbered to another gun.

Excellent. The revolver retains 99% original blue finish showing some mild loss at the muzzle and some thinning to brown on the grip strap. A patch of minor pitting is present on the backstrap. The hammer and trigger retain 97% of the vivid original case colors. The grips are excellent with a few minor handling marks and overall crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent. The box is good with some edge separation and a section of a long side (lid) missing.
