serial #S70579, 38/44 S&W Special / 38 Special, 6 1/2" barrel with an excellent bore. This post-war five-screw transitional revolver was made in 1948 and holds strong condition. The metal surfaces retain about 96% factory blue with high edge wear, the usual turn ring on the cylinder and a small patch of oxidized pinprick pitting on both sides of the barrel. The service-style trigger and hammer retain bold case-hardened colors with light operational wear. The diamond checkered walnut factory Magna grips with silver S&W medallions are numbered to the gun and rate very good to excellent with light dents, mostly around the butt. All appropriate parts are correctly numbered to the gun and it features a factory Patridge front sight and black blade adjustable rear sight. The revolver includes a gold factory two-piece box that is correctly end labeled to the gun. The serial numbers were usually written in grease pencil on the bottom end of the box and the "S" is visible but the remaining number is to faint to read. The box contains a factory aluminum cleaning rod, bore brush, bore mop, "Helpful Hints" pamphlet and a very desirable blue-finished knurled sight adjustment tool. The box rates about very good with light scuffs, edge wear and oxidation on the metal corner reinforcements. The pamphlet rates near excellent as does the sight adjustment tool with minor wear on the finish. A factory letter dated November 15, 2005 indicates this revolver was shipped as described on June 4, 1948 to E.K. Tryon Co. Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This gun has many desirable features for the collector: strong condition, box, accessories and documentation. (88435-2) {C&R}
