4/27/18 - This is a gorgeous example of an early Pre-Model 29 S&W revolver, chambered in iconic .44 magnum cailber. Made around 1958-1959, this 4-screw variation is ANIB with only minimal "box" wear as per pictures. It could be unfired, as we see no evidence of gunpowder residue anywhere on the cylinder. The gun has beautiful high polished blue finish of the late 50's era that you would not find on any of the modern guns. Mint bore and mint "coke" grips. It comes with an original black presentation case with tool and a super rare outer cardboard sleeve. Just a stunning example of an early S&W large caliber revolver!
