We are not all experts.... ; ) Help a newbie out.
Ill send u a PM. No sir its a 4". It is actually not a model 19 sir. It is the predecessor to the model 19. These are referred to as Combat Magnums. You will also hear terminology like Pre 19 when referring to these. Combat magnums were manufactured prior to the model stamping in the middle fifties. Before I totally confuse you ill try to help by posting a pic of the factory letter. Mr Jinks can explain it much more clearly than I can. And by the way there ain't nothing wrong with a 19-5 neither!!!:-).Hope this helps.
