Early N's...

Found a nice 4" 44 Magnum that had a serial number close to the one I already had! The 4" serial number is S160241, my 6.5" is S160358. I know the 4" serial numbers are a little harder to nail down, any thoughts on these? I plan to letter, but hoped someone here had some information...





I also picked up what I believe is a 1st year model 57... (S238291)

Very nice indeed. S&W excellence on display. When you look at those 3 revolvers you know where the statement "They don't make them like they used too" came from.
