Odd little non nicel knob on front of ejector rod bolt housing. Never saw Smith like it.
What model etc was this. Bummer about the buff and renickel. He says all original. I don't know think so.
They are the .22 Hand Ejector, other wise called the "Ladysmith" by collectors. They came in three models, 1st, 2nd & 3rd. They were chambered in .22 Long, not Long Rifle. They are very collectable, but not the one your looking at. The pearls are wrong and the give-away is the hammer and trigger are plated.
