Here's mine; I've posted it on several of the forums before. It walked into an El Paso gun show about 3 PM on a Sunday, and I bought it. It's a square butt with Modified Magna Grips. Lots of finish wear and the grips are worn on the left side. A friend, a retired El Paso policeman, said it probably belonged to a plainclothes policeman; it's been carried a long time but shot little. It locks up tight and the bore is pristine. I shoot it in the Internet Snubby Matches as it's easier to shoot than my J frame 638, particularly when I put on a set of Sile grips (some target pistol!!). It probably came out 1948-52 somewhere; SN is C 137XXX.

The holster is unmarked but is probably a Myers. It was quite a nice holster, with floral carving. The safety strap was cut off long ago, and the holster has been sweat on considerably; probably carried before most offices had air conditioning down here.

All in all, a pretty expensive, first class rig: a S&W K frame sunbby, and a carved Myers holser.
