Default New to Me Perfected

I picked this Third Model Perfected up today at my LGS.

It is in beautiful condition.

The serial # is: 100xx. Any idea of DOM?

Please excuse my bad cell phone pics but I'm not quite ready to tell my photographer wife about this one.

In pic #4, I tried to show that a 22 round won't go the last 1/8" into the chamber. Olympic barrel?

Can't wait to get it to the range and see how it does!

Looks like it shipped in late 1921 or early 1922. You most likely have an Olympic barrel on that SS.
