Description:
EARLY PRE-29, FIVE SCREW .44 MAGNUM WITH RARE 4” BARREL WITH FACTORY LETTER. This one turned up in Arizona and I sent for the S&W historical letter myself. The letter states: “…that the 44 Magnum pre-Model 29, five screw variation, serial number S169XXX was shipped on March 6, 1957 and delivered to Belknap Hardware Co., Louisville, KY. The records indicate that this revolver was shipped with a 4 inch barrel red ramp front sight, white outline rear sight, target hammer and target trigger, blue finish and checkered Goncalo Alves target grips. This shipment was for 10 units of this model in the above configuration.” This example has seen only light use and shows some minor muzzle wear and high edge wear to the cylinder. The blue is bright, grips excellent and retains the original sights, hammer and trigger with about all the case color remaining. Excellent inside with tight action. The latest STANDARD CATALOG OF SMITH AND WESSON, 4th Edition states the 4” barrel should command a 25% premium in value. Original factory letter included. (NOTE: WHAT LOOKS LIKE A SMUDGE BY THE S&W LOGO ON THE FRAME IS JUST LIGHT REFLECTING OFF OIL.)
