Welcom to the forum. But a picture would help.

You have a .32-20 Hand Ejector Model of 1905, 4th change. Almost 80,000 of these were manufactured between 1915 and 1940 in barrel lengths of 4, 5 & 6 inches, with standard sights or target sights. and blue or nickel finish. Your gun was probably shipped from S&W in 1923.
