And like larryofcc, mine also has the original gold box, one line address and the ever popular LERK. It's not the most rare S&W or the most desirable compared to some models but there is just something about a fixed sight, long action K frame with a 5" barrel that is just 'right".
Rats. Mine does not have the LERK, but my 1947 K22 does. Got to have at least one LERK.
BTW, anyone with a 6" M&P from 1946 that wants to sell or trade? Thanks all. Big Larry
