The rear sight is adjustable and original to the gun and the front white dot sight looks just like the revovler pictured above.

It was used by a family game warden in Maine. It was his "duty gun." I have been told that he "ordered it special from S&W in the early 30's. He wanted a .22 caliber on a 38 frame." At least that is what my wife's father says.

Can anyone please help me date this revovler? What model is it?

It is in really rough shape and needs to be worked on, but it should clean up nicely. I want to restore it and keep it in the family.

Any help would be appreciated.
