I don't know a lot about "New Era" guns- guns without pinned barrels.
I'll claim safety in stating I know a lot about the guns of the period that interests me-
Hand Ejectors 1896 into the mid/late 70's.
Generally speaking, you can assume that a standard width trigger will have shipped with grooves once they started grooving them on K and N frames in 1929. (into the late 70's)
You already know that the last one built with a smooth trigger in 29 could have sat in the vault till 35, so no absolutes apply.
I'm not sure when I frame triggers were grooved.
