Default 38 Special S&W 6" Revolver

I have my Grandfathers pistol from Kansas City Kansas. He had a bar at 6th and Central in the 30s and my Pop told me the pistol lived under the bar (if this is the same gun). My Mom used to take the pistol out in the back yard on New Years eve and shoot it into the sky in the 1950s. That was when I first saw it.

The serial # is 463705. Patent listings on the top of the barrell are Oct 8 01 through Dec 29 14. Does anyone have any information on the pistol?

This is my first post. As an aside, I flew in the Republic of Vietnam (68-69) with a .38 in a shoulder holster, a .45 1911 between my legs for deflecting inbound shots and an American Can Company .45 Grease Gun straped to me. I carried two extra clips for the Grease Gun in a leg pocket. My issue M-16 lived in my wall locker as it was too big to carry in the helicopter. I flew UH-1 and OH-6A aircraft. Pelican 223 was my call sign.

Thanks in advance!
