Shame to lose those little gold S&W medallions though.
To a collector, they make the early Smith revolvers.

We see a fair few examples of the second model Hand-Ejector here in Australia, mostly with obscure military provenance and chambered for the .455 Eley. Have owned one myself for a couple decades. The "triple-lock" is comparatively rare.

Like them a lot. Congratulations on your fine example Curl, in a very usable chambering!

Marrakai,

The S&W service grips are not lost. Just in the drawer! The turn of a screw puts them right back where they were.

As for the Second Model you describe, did you see the one I posted here a couple years ago? I think you would appreciate it, properly loaded cartridges and all.

S&W .455 Mk. II Hand Ejector 2nd Model #69234

Cheers, mate.

Curl
