Description:
SUPERB CONDITION PRE-WAR MODEL 1926 .44 SPECIAL HAND EJECTOR, #49XXX, MADE 1937. Also known as the WOLF & KLAR MODEL for the Fort Worth, Texas dealer who requested this model and sold most of them, many going to Texas Rangers and other law enforcement officers in Texas. Produced from 1929-1941 in limited numbers, many that show up appear in hard used and often re-nickeled/re-blued condition. A number also have non-factory “Mexican” or “Pawn Shop” Engraving. This 5” blue example is one of the best I’ve seen. It retains nearly all the high polished factory blue with only a touch of wear toward the muzzle of the barrel. All markings sharp and clear including the correct stampings on the rear of the trigger and hammer. Even the front of the cylinder and the face of the recoil shield retain about all the blue, indicating that this one was rarely if ever fired. Exc. case colors on the hammer and trigger. Perfect bore, tight action and matching numbers on the frame, cylinder and barrel. The grips fit well, but are numbered slightly lower- possibly done at the distributor if some of these were in the show case fitted with pearl or ivory grips (common) and the buyer wanted standard checkered walnut, in which case the salesman would simply grab a pair of grips from one of the guns with pearl and swap back without matching the number. I think this happened frequently especially on the “N” frame guns as numbers on the grips often do not match. The grips on this one are in the same excellent+ condition as the rest of the revolver. Hard to find these in any condition and really hard to find in blue with high condition.
