Description:

The accompanying factory letter lists this revolver with a 5 inch barrel in .32-20 caliber, blue finish and type of stocks not listed when it was shipped to W.A.L. Thompson Hardware Co. of Topeka, Kansas, on September 4, 1936. Standard markings and matching numbers on yoke and crane. Comes with the original box, bore brush and "Shooting Suggestions" and "Unerring Accuracy" pamphlets.

Rating Definition:

Very fine. The revolver retains 95% plus original blue finish showing some loss at the muzzle and minor thinning on the grip straps. There are several minor dings on the back strap near the butt. The revarnished grips are very fine with crisp checkering overall. Mechanically excellent. The box is also very fine with minimal wear.
