24-3 and N Diamond Checkered Targets
The past few shows in the Houston area have been a little bit of a disappointment to me. The old S&W's seem to be getting harder to find every day.
But.....I did find a 3" Mod 24-3 with original numbered box and unopened tools (1984-not that old but always wanted one) and was able to work a trade.
I was really pleased with the deal but it got better. The same gentleman provided me with a nice set of N frame diamond checkered targets w/o the speed loader cutout. The stocks are numbered 120461 and I suppose they came on an early 1950's gun.....maybe a Target 45.
So...I'll keep going to the shows. Guess I'll have to be looking for something old to put the new stocks on!
Here are a few pics.

Very nice revolver. I've wanted one of those for a while. I'd even settle for the 624 version right now.

At this point I'm a little reluctant to let them go but I'm thinking about it. As soon as I get rid of them....I know I'll run across a gun that needs a set.

Not TOO much of a disappointment based on the haul you made ! 
Beautiful stocks ! They were worth the trip all by themselves !

I say old chap, good show! Great revolver and great non relieved diamond center stocks. My two cents worth is, Keep the grips!

Since you have the extra stocks...you need to buy a revolver to fit them! It is only proper.

Are those K or N frame stocks? Very nice and worth a pretty penny.

Bravo! Now go shoot that 24-3! I bought one eons ago when I saw the article in Guns & Ammo. Still have it and love it. It started my love affair with the 44 Special.
