This 44 Magnum is one of the first with an 8 3/8-inch barrel and was shipped "in the white" to Rex Firearms in December 1958. It was subsequently engraved and inlaid with gold and silver by Alvin White in January 1959. After engraving, the revolver was finished in blue at Smith & Wesson.

The stocks are also a product of Mr. White who was also a master when working with wood and ivory.

Thanks to a fellow forum member I was able to add it (the fourth AAW-engraved 44 Magnum) to my collection.
