Description:
A nice example of the early Smith & Wesson Hand Ejector. The Military & Police Model of 1905, also known as the .38 M&P 3rd Model, was built as a round or square butt K frame with 5 screws. In fact, it was the first in the M&P series to uses 5 screws, as prior models (.38 M&P 1st and 2nd) had only four. Barrels of 4", 5", and 6.5" were common. Serial numbers ran from 62450 to 73250 with a total of 10,800 produced circa 1905-06. This example has the 5" barrel and a round butt. Cylinder length is roughly 1.56". It is interesting to note that the Smith & Wesson catalogue of the time applied the Model 1905 designation to all square butt revolvers and the M1902 designation to all round butt revolvers. This was mainly an internal factory method of reference. As a result, S&W collectors may refer to the M1905 round butt revolvers (38 SPL and 32-20 versions) as M1902s. The revolver shows some signs of external wear. However, the internal mechanisms are still tight and the 1905 still has a good double action pull. It has a light single-action pull. The grips are original. The bore is in good condition. This revolver would make a nice addition to any S&W fan’s collection.
