Well Robert, I bought that one. The error in the title description and overexposed photos, plus the ugly rubber grips definitely kept the price down. The pre-war description turned out to be pre-WWI, not II. There are a couple sets of nice gold medallion stocks in my parts drawers that will quickly be added when I get the revolver. This turned out to be a shipped in 1911, making it a 3rd Change, not a "K-38 Target Double Action Revolver" I believe the finish to be better than the flood light images when in the hand. Also, if a 6 1/2" barrel length, it would be very uncommon since a 3rd Change should only have a 4" or 6" barrel. 2nd Change revolvers did offer a 6 1/2" barrel and there were probably some left when the change was made, hence the longer barrel on this one.
Will share when I get the gun and am happy to pick up such an early 38 M&P Target gun!!
