Hi
In April Judy, Jerry and I did a Smith & Wesson display in Canada at Calgary.
While I was at the show I was able to pick up this Triple Lock and have it imported to the USA. The 5 inch Triple locks are very Scarce I have only seen one other 5 inch 455. This one was a single shipment to a Commercial Distributor in April of 1915. This Triple lock was owned by a Officer in the Canada Army.
With the Revolver a received his holster with his name in it. The officer was
Lt. Blake of the 50 Batt. I am in the process of getting Lt Blakes records.
There has only been one other order shipped to Canada of 5 inch triple locks.

Enjoy the pictures and the history of this Triple Lock.
