Both revolvers are six shot, double action built on the square butt K frame. Gun (A) is a Fourth Change manufactured 1915-1942. This lovely revolver features the early high polish factory blue finish dating to the 1920's with non-medallion diamond checkered walnut grips (not numbered), case colored hammer and trigger, five screw frame. Matching numbers on barrel, cylinder and extractor. Backstrap is just beginning to thin, there is a small area of simple flaking about 1/4" on left side of frame, some light muzzle wear and a light drag line; still retains at least 95% original finish. Grips are near mint. Near new inside and out with super bore. Gun (B) is a factory nickel Fourth Change that was also manufactured during the 1920's with the same style grips (no medallion). Matching numbers on barrel, cylinder and extractor. 98% of the original factory nickel showing just a light drag line and usual light storage wear. Cylinder shows signs of burn. Grips are not numbered and in excellent condition with just a minute chip at left front toe. Bore is near mint. Locks up tight as new. This is an excellent offering of two nice Smith & Wesson Hand Ejectors.
