An FBI agent would have had his 4" in either a Myres or Heiser in the Threepersons style.

A Heiser of the Threepersons Style in carved is VERY rare; the plain ones abound.
If you're feeling wealthy, a Brill would also be period correct (barely because Brills were made only until 1955).

The Brills for the short barrels were constructed very differently (included the cuff but encircled the trigger guard and always had a safety strap).
