Nice, I like those a lot. Don't see them for sale very often where I shop.

I'll try to find a pic and list SN's of my transitional OD an HD when I get home.
I have one each (6 total) pre-war, transitional and 5-screw short action ODs and HDs.

Pic as promised. I've swapped the incorrect grips on the short action OD to sharp shoulder early style.
The transitionals are:
HD S65024
OD S71122

Nice score! A long-action K or N frame with a microclick rear sight is just about my favorite S&W configuration.
