I don't know if that's what Engine49guy had in mind but you certainly deserve a cookie for knowing that story from 1911.

Before 1957 when S&W introduced model numbers they had model names, usually fairly catchy ones -Military and Police, e.g. Also known by several other names during its production run. Produce a 357 in a plain finish-you have the Highway Patrolman.
