Description:
BEAUTIFUL, HIGH CONDITION REGULATION POLICE .32 S&W LONG CALIBER, 4 1/4" BARREL REVOLVER, #449XXX, MADE 1917-1942. This is a distinct model separate from the usual .32 Hand-Ejector series because the Regulation Police revolvers have a cut or notch in the back strap where oversize grips fit necessitating the serial number placement to be on the front strap instead of on the butt which is covered by the extension-type grips. Serial numbers of these ran concurrently with the .32 H-E Third Model from about 260,000-536,000 (with the majority being the Hand-Ejector Model). Probably this one was made in the 1920s-1930s. It retains nearly all the beautiful S&W blue and case color on the hammer and trigger. At worst, there might be a touch of edge wear at the muzzle on each side, a hint of edge wear on the cylinder and some very slight scattered beginning of freckling on the frame mainly visible only under bright light- like in the photos. Action and bore are perfect, all matching numbers and the bottom of the crisply checkered excellent walnut grips retain the original 1917 patent stampings. About all the blue remains on the cylinder face indicating that it has been shot very little if at all. These early Pre-War Smiths were all hand tuned and fitted with a quality that simply doesn't exist in the modern world! A great example.
