Hello Forum!

I am new to the forum, and I have obtained a Pre-war Hand Ejector in 44 S&W SPL., that I have not seen before.

The serial # is: 18235. There is a "STAR" stamp before the number.

There is a lanyard hole in the frame after the serial Number, but no lanyard on the revolver.

It has the rounded pre-war adjustable "micro" sight rear, with a Patridge Blade on a very high boss up front.

The top of the barrel is stamped with: "Smith & Wesson Springfield Mass, USA Patented Dec.17.1901.Feb.6.1906.Sep 14 1909

There is a small logo on the left side, nothing on the side plate.

It is a five screw gun, in about 90% PLUS NRA without box or papers.

Any info would be appreciated. I took this piece in a trade, not knowing what it was, as I usually collect post war, numbered hand ejectors. It looked odd to me until I dug a bit on the web and found out that Wolf and Klar in Texas had something to do with this piece.

Here are a few photos! Thanks in advance! Tom
