Description:

Manufactured in 1938. It has an extremely rare 2 inch barrel stamped with the caliber/model marking on the left side and two line address on the right side and a round butt which was only offered on models with 2 inch barrels. Matching numbers on both grip panels, yoke and crane. Comes with the original box, bore brush, "Proper Care" leaflet, "Special Instructions" and "Universally Accepted" pamphlet.

Rating Definition:

Very fine. The revolver retains 85% plus original blue finish with smooth brown patina on the grip straps and some minor high edge wear. There are some small patches of minor pitting on the right rear frame. The grips are excellent with crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent. The box is very good with some repairs, some staining and some minor-moderate wear.
