The 3" CS-1 was carried by U.S. Customs Special Agents (who as investigators would be considered "plain clothes") and the 4" guns were issued to U.S. Customs Inspectors (the uniformed individuals who worked at the ports of entry, airports, seaports, etc.)
Thanks for the correction / clarification. The gentleman I bought my 4" from had a Partridge style gold bead sight installed. I bought a couple of OEM .125" sights & will have a local gunsmith narrow each side so the blade will be period-correct .100".
