Description:
RARE MODEL 1926 .44 SPECIAL HAND EJECTOR THIRD MODEL (ALSO KNOWN AS THE “WOLF AND KLAR MODEL), 5” BARREL, DESIRABLE BLUE FINISH, #55XXX, ONLY 4976 MADE FROM 1926-1941. Most of these big N-frame S&Ws were shipped to famed dealer Wolf & Klar of Fort Worth, Texas. Many of these ended up in the holsters of the Texas Rangers, Border Patrol or other law enforcement agencies. They were made in both blue and nickel finishes with the majority I’ve seen being nickel. This example shows fine original blue with normal holster wear to the forward part of the barrel sides, and edges along with the typical holster strap wear line on the right side of the frame behind the cylinder. The blue on the grip straps and trigger guard bottom is dulling somewhat, but not worn to gray. Still retains some nice case color on the trigger. Front sight has not been filed. Excellent markings and matching serial number on the frame, cylinder and barrel. The grips are the correct style, and fit well, but re not numbered to this revolver- this is often the case with this particular model as many Texas lawmen replaced their walnut grips with stag or ivory…this was when sidearms were an object of pride and not viewed as a politically incorrect unfortunate necessity! Excellent action and bore. Typical impeccable pre-war S&W hand-fitting and craftsmanship! One of the finest and most difficult of the pre-war .44 Special to obtain.
