Worlds most tactical 1896 Hand Ejector

Needs Crimson Trace grips.

I think it looks great with those bantam grips!
That rear sight location does wonders for the sight radius, doesn't it? What was the original barrel length? I guess this was meant to be a point-and-shoot model.
What caliber is this revolver chambered for?

It's an 1896 .32 hand Ejector, the very 1st version of the 1st S&W Hand Ejector models. They were made with 3 1/4", 4 1/4" and 6" barrels. Probably started life as a 3 or 4 since those were most common.

No idea what the original barrel length was. I bought it already cut down. I cut a slot in the rib and put the old silver coin it. I filed it down a little too short though. It shoots a little high at 10 yards. It's fine for a belly gun though.

These parallel universe alternate reality guns should have there own forum subsection. Looks like it came from someplace where they ride hovercars and still smoke unfiltereds.

ARRGH! I think I just went blind.

Mmmm Hmmm!! I like the way you filled and pinned the IL hole. One of the nicest jobs I've seen.

Kind of like the grips that came on my customized M1917!
They really change the feel of the gun, no doubt about it.

PS - Front blade and rear adjustable target sight are removed in that photo. Slooooooowwwwwwly working on fabricating new ones. I'll finish her up one of these days. Or maybe and put on red dot . . .
