6" barrel in .38 Special caliber. According to the serial number, this is a post-war M&P manufactured 1945 to 1947. It has a custom round butt and the diamond checkered walnut magna grips not numbered to this gun have been altered to match the grip frame style/contour. This gun was custom engraved on frame, cylinder, and backstrap in a beautifully executed scroll pattern with punch dot background. Factory legends are perfect. Gun does not appear to have been fired since engraving. Retains 99% of the nickel plated finish with light drag line. Strong case colors on hammer and trigger. Fine action and bore. Grips are very good with dings. This beautiful revolver would benefit greatly from a pair of round butt pearls, but is still extremely handsome. The engraving was definitely done by someone in the master class.
