Hello Folks,
I got this gem today from a family member. Ser. number S-904XX dates it around 1952-1953. It’s in great shape, with just a hint of bluing loss at the muzzle.
The box I don’t believe is original, as the fit is a bit off.
What really intrigues me are the stocks. They have S&W medallions, but are they factory? I am told the inserts are real ivory. There are no markings on the inside.
It did come with tools as well; I presume the black SAT is desirable?
Any insight on this, especially a value, would be greatly appreciated.
Best-
Paul G
