1903 Handejector

At a shop now.

Any clue for date range on a 32 s&w. It looks to be an I frame with 6 screws. Serial #313373.

Thanks

Probably around 1920.

Thanks for your help

Thank you very much. Ash was asking for me. I won the 1903 on a Gunbroker auction. Unfortunately the single action isn't working (going to the gunsmith next week). There is a chunk missing from the right side stock.
I'll get some pics up shortly.
Anyone know a good place to find stocks for these? The LGS has a 6 inch one without stocks that may end up coming home with me.
Thanks
Doug

Doug, You have a ".32 Hand Ejector Third Model" if it has the round butt with serial # on the butt.

".32 Regulation Police" if it has the rebated square butt stocks extending below and covering the butt of the grip frame with serial number on the forestrap of the grip frame.

I agree with DWalt. Likely shipped in the first half of 1920.

Check ebay for correct stocks.

You should look on Ebay for the stocks. I have had success finding old ones there. Just take your time and you might turn up a real bargain. Also found out that you can negotiate with some dealers, especially if an item has been unsold for a long time.
