Ira, thank you for contributing to this thread. I didn't have a Greenblatt S&W at the time this thread started, but in the intervening years I managed to acquire an uncommon Model 11-4 which he had sold. In an action to clean out vault stock for which there was no demand, S&W shipped several specimens of this model (as well as other models) to your grandfather's business in late 1970. The presumption is that they were all sold to individuals, and that some individuals may have bought more than just one of them. These revolvers chambered a .38 cartridge not used by departments and agencies in the United States, and there was no law enforcement interest in them. S&W had originally manufactured them for export to Commonwealth countries for which that round was standard.
