I do know one of the retired S&W employees had alot of his guns ordered with 8 3/8" barrels, nickel and gold bead front sight.
I have a Model 53 just like that. I also had a model 29 & a 27 in that configuration.
The story could have been told wrong over the years. Either way, it will be one of the last two I ever get rid of(one for each hand). Maybe it was his personal gun??
