Manufactured in 1919. Blade front and frame notch rear sights, two-line address and patent marking on top of the barrel, caliber on the left side, and "UNITED STATES PROPERTY" on the underside. The left side of the frame is stamped with the "JMG" (John M. Gilbert) inspection mark, and there are several "H" sub-inspection marks. Smooth trigger and checkered hammer with polished sides.
