According to an old magazine 5-6 gr of Bullseye; titegroup; Hp-38; with a Lyman 220 gr cast bullet will give 763-864fps. 7 gr of titegroup=949fps. Trailboss with 6 gr=728. This is from a 4" barrel mod.57.
It is 5 digit K prefix in I would guess to be about 85% with light holster and cylinder ring wear. Anybody have an idea what it is worth? I don't know how to post pics.
I have a model 57 no dash that has a number (E13) stamped on the crane. Can anyone tell me what it stands for?
Also what year did they start with the no pin and recess?
Thanks
New guy here. I have some knowledge of Smith workings but I know that I will learn much more here. I have a 36 and a 57. Love that big gun. Nothing in the world has that great trigger of a Smith.
