This particular revolver features scroll engraving on nearly all metal surfaces including the back strap by Mike Woodside who has signed the right side of the grip frame. Red insert ramp front sight and white outlined adjustable rear sight. The six shot cylinder is counter bored and has scroll engraving covering all but the flutes. The grips are relief carved on both sides with the image of a posing woman surrounded by scrollwork and the backs are marked "SNO/AJE/INDIA." Includes a hardwood case with cleaning rod, two brushes, and screwdriver. The accompanying factory letter lists this revolver with a 4 inch barrel, blue finish and checkered goncalo alves target grips when shipped on January 16, 1968 and delivered to George Cake Co., Berkeley, CA.

Rating Definition:

Exceptionally fine overall as embellished by Mike Woodside, retaining 98% plus reapplied blue finish, slight handling marks and crisp grip carving. Mechanically excellent. The case is very fine with limited handling/storage marks and some typical high spot wear on the lining.
