Beautiful revolver. Is that a 4" barrel? I have the Ruger SP101 357 with 4" it seems ideal for everything, except concealment. Lol. Enjoy

Not sure, some type of hardwood but they are beautiful, I had to retouch a tiny spot on it and used Varathane expresso stain. Super dark black/brown matched perfectly.

Thought it looked long. Good choice for back country movement.

If you reload try those MB hardcast 180 gr Pugs. with 11.6-12 gr. of 2400 they would work well for trailing!

Nice pick up. That S&W is a fine addition to any collection. I'm sure you will find it the perfect companion when you're on the trail.
