S&W Pre-Victory model unboxing 

I have one similar to that but it's not a Victory model. Mine was made in 1947 best as I can tell. Prefix "S" serial number. Mine doesn't have that hole under the cylinder release... 5" and "made in USA" stamp on the side and the roll mark on the barrel - chambered in 38 Special Ctg. That is very cool!

Nice piece. I too have one of these passed down to me from my great uncle. It’s equipped with his original purchase receipt and transfer document dated November of 1927. Adjustable rear sight and essentially in mint condition. He purchased it new from the factory and it was shipped via train to his home in Jersey city. Looks like he shot it a few times literally a few times back in the 20’s then it rested in its original box passed on through several other family members in its box in a chest untouched for 90+ years until I eventually received it. He was a construction guy and his claim to fame was his work in the shiny arches atop the Chrysler building in NYC. I was very fond of uncle Philly during my early childhood and he took me into the city to show off his various construction jobs in old NYC. He drove motorcycles and did stunts at horse tracks before the races and was truly a gem to us as a grand story teller. He did so many things and traveled to so many places it was hard to discern fact from fiction, but anytime we looked into any of his tales we found the receipts of validity. This revolver is no exception to his life and tales of the olden days.

The Mosin Crate sells some nice stuff always in great condition too. That's almost as nice as my 1907 Colt Police Positive .38 caliber I have. Thanks for showing us this really nice revolver in very nice condition for its age. I subscribed to your channel too.

Nice finish, acquired a parkerized 38/200 in great condition a while ago.

Very cool. I've got a former British Service Revolver that was imported back to the US pre-1968, and turned into a nickel plated 2" snubby. Sadly the plating hides most of the wartime marks.

That’s amazing! I just recently acquired a pre victory model as well with NZ 434* and the last digit is not legible. Can’t wait to find some 38sw and take it out to the range.

I have 2, one lend lease British and one domestic. I love them!

Bu modelin Colt ve Smith and Wesson tarafından aynı zamanda üretildiğine inanıyorum.. Babamın tabancası Colt marka 38 special'di.. Bu videoda gösterilen silahın aynısı..

How much did you pay??
