I was of the belief that all NSWPol Revolvers were destroyed when the Glocks were issued. The State Government of the day refused to sell them on. Smithnut is very lucky to have one.
The 3" barrel was chosen over the 4" barrel as the Commissioner of the day, wanted these guns to be concealed under the Officers Tunic and not be visible to the general public.

I originally purchased this from a S&WCA collector, but didn't know any details on how he added it to his collection.
When disposing of several guns a few years back, I sold this to another collector. When he lettered it he found that it never left the U.S., so apparently it was an over-run gun that eventually was sent to a US based distributor?
Regardless, it's a pretty special revolver.
