Someone is selling a S&W box that he says is for a Model 58.
This box does have the correct dimensions for a 4" N-frame. The end label has the correct info on it. However, the other end of the top lid doesn't have the printing that says Model 58, 4 inch, blue, Military & Police .41 magnum.
BTW, the end label shows s/n N188254. I thought all Model 58 boxes had the silver printing on one end. Is this box legit ?

Thanks in advance.

The box style you mentioned (end printing) was replaced in about 1967 by the labeled version, and this box is probably from 1973 based on the SN.
