4-1/4" barrel in .32 S&W long caliber. This rare revolver was only manufactured in 1903-1904. It is a round butt, six shot, double action revolver built on the I frame. This revolver features the factory nickel finish with case colored hammer and is fitted with a pair of period non-medallion pearl grips. Revolver shows minor age spotting and freckling. Still retains 98% factory nickel finish. Legends are razor sharp. Grips are excellent. Strong rifling with light abrasions. Perfect action. The butt is stamped with a factory return star which would indicate repair or factory refinish, but there is no refinish date stamped inside. It would appear this revolver was returned to the factory for something other than refinishing.
