I have picked up a set of "N" frame no medallion round tops they reportly came off a early 44 that went back to the factory
with a crackrd frame later in life the factory replaced the frame with a 3 screw and the old grips didn't fit anymore but were returned with the gun. The owner said he would give me a crack at the gun but alais he said it had sentamental value to him but sold me the grips. They are pencil marked with 3539. the friends gun was serial # 363XX. I don't get it but I don't have a lot of experience with guns of that vintage yet. I dated his gun to 1931. I don't know if the pencil marking is serial number or a fitting # or what. As always need to gain more understanding from my peers on the fourm.
