Description:
A TRUE PRE-WAR RARITY WITH S&W FACTORY LETTER! MILITARY & POLICE MODEL OF 1905 FOURTH CHANGE WITH FACTORY 2” BARREL SHIPPED IN 1934! The first 2” barrel M&P was shipped from the factory in January of 1934…this one was shipped on June 2, 1934. It is thought that only a very small number of these were made before World War II. This was the Great Depression time when sales were small and production was limited. Very few of these pre-war snubbies turn up for sale these days. This is an excellent example with blue finish and round butt with matching serial number on frame, barrel and cylinder of 626XXX. According to the factory letter it was shipped to Western Metal Supply Co., San Diego, California. The beautiful, sharp checkered walnut grips are not numbered and the letter states that “there was not a listing about the grip material.” Overall excellent bright blue with only some minor edge wear/dulling of the high polish finish on the cylinder, a little on the sides of the barrel and some mixing on the bottom of the trigger guard and back strap etc. Exc. markings, nice case color on the hammer and trigger, bright bore, tight mech., simply a great example of a super rare Pre-War, 5-screw 2” M&P revolver.
