Description:
Here we have an excellent Smith & Wesson K38 (Pre Model 15) revolver chambered in .38 Special. The Smith & Wesson K-38 Combat Masterpiece, Revolver Model 15 is a six-shot double-action revolver, with adjustable open sights, built on the medium-size "K" frame. It is chambered for the .38 Special cartridge and is fitted with a 4-inch (100 mm) barrel, though additional barrel options have been offered at various times during its production. Originally known as the "K-38 Combat Masterpiece", it was renamed the Model 15 in 1957 when all Smith & Wesson revolvers were given numerical model numbers. It is a shorter barrel version of the Smith & Wesson Model 14 Target Masterpiece and essentially an adjustable-sight version of the seminal Smith & Wesson Model 10 ("Military and Police") revolver with target shooting features. The main production run of the Model 15 was from 1949 to 1999. This particular example left the factory in 1953. It has some light high-edge wear and handling marks. The 4-inch barrel has a clean bore with strong rifling. The wood grip panels are in excellent condition and the checkering is still nice and sharp. Most of the wear appears on the cylinder and the action is tight and the lockup is solid. This fine revolver would make an excellent addition to an existing collection or a great beginning for a new collection.
