That is a very fine specimen & the stocks are indeed exceptional. A most excellent find.

Engine49guy--I am curious as to what you mean by a "high speed" hammer. The mechanism of the gun is the new (after 1948 or so) so-called short action (as opposed to the original long-action design), that provided a shorter hamer throw to reduce lock time. The firm offered a standard width hammer spur and a wide target spur, that could be applied to and of the K-frame guns on special order or retrofitted.
