See my posting on the 1945 & later forum, Are you sure about the caliber being .38 S&W? All the rest of your description points to a .38 S&W Special caliber gun, as a 4 in. bbl would not be a .38 S&W caliber gun for a Victory model. $350 is in the ball park if the gun is mechanically OK and has not been altered.

From the Victory Database we can estimate that this revolver was likely shipped from the factory in the November-December, 1944 time frame.

Are the stocks the smooth walnut variety?

Thanks for posting the data.
