I don't have much knowledge of the older Smith's. Usually when I'm looking at Gunbroker I'll type in "32" in the S&W revolver section. What caught my eye was an auction labeled "Model 31or ?". I looked at it, a single really poor picture of what appeared to be a Model 16, 6" blue model. I have another 16-3, a couple 16-4's and like the .32's. Anyway I contacted the seller and he noted the gun came from his uncle's estate and he knew little about it. He didn't know the actual model number but said it was in nice shape. He had good feedback and seemed legit. So I figured it was worth a gamble. I bid and got it. First thing I checked was for a model number and there was none. Out came my Standard Catalog. It appears to be a K32 not a Model 16, the serial number of K 1370XX puts it made in 1952. The bore and chambers look great. Grips aren't correct so I'll be looking for a proper set. Here's some of my own not so good pics to show it.
