Dinner last night with Jim King.
Fantastic people
#138802, listed as a First Bekeart-Pattern production run – When the Bekeart order was received, S&W made 1044 .22 cal. target sighted revolvers on the .32 frame with target extension grips, although this was not introduced as a cataloged model. The guns included in the First Bekeart Shipment...
36-1 bought for $50 from a friend who was retiring form the SO where I worked. The no dash I got off Gun broker years ago. Bluing is great, if ya disregard my fingerprints. Next time I clean them, THEN take the photos.
Amazing what just a little Mothers Mag and a few minutes can do. Got this for a decent price with a nice little carved leather holster. Pretty scratched up but nothing too severe so I took a chance.
Interesting observation
When I bought it, it had been worked on by Bubba, unbeknownst to me. Had
my LGS Smith work on it and this is how it ended up. I may have to have him take a second look!!
