That's a real...
...beauty.
It's probably a Lew Horton Special. You can send an email to Lew Horton's firm, and they'll confirm if it's one of theirs.
I have a similar 24-3.
Mine's one of my favorites.

Had the same beauty! Recommend you change out them combats as they tore my hand up and drew blood and I have pretty tough skin. Wish I would of kept it as a PAST shooting glove takes the sting away.
Congrats on that hand cannon and invest in a reloading kit if you don't have one and full coverage rubber grips. Can load 50 rounds of .41 magnums for around $7.00. Cheap fun and save the 210 gr. Gold Dots for serious work at $1.00 a pop factory loaded for self defense.
Now you need a 3" 657, and a 3" 686 and a........................................
The madness never ends !
