Pick this up from an auction. This is my first .44. Its all matching the finish is not that great. I don't know much about it. I know it has a Eagle Stamp and a place for the Lanyard ring. I think its a 2nd model. I think about 1921. Not sure what they are worth in this condition, but seems to be a cool gun.
I have learned that the first model is the Triple lock.

There was only one model of Triple Locks. Second Model .44 Specials didn't have the enclosed ejector rod shroud and often had eagle stamps. Many of the 2nd Models were built on 1917 frames that were bought back from the US Government after WW I.

Your link wouldn't open for me.
 
A 2nd Model is not a Triple Lock. The 1st Model had the nickname Triple Lock. Here are a 1st Model (Triple Lock) from 1916 and a 2nd Model from 1926.
The 1st Model has the shrouded extractor rod and the 3rd lock.
1st Model serial number range is 1 to 15375.
2nd Model serial number range is 15376 to 59000.
