Picked up a 1920, S&W Hand Eject, .32 S&W Long today

Found this in lower Michigan today. [Now my home equity loan is truly maxed out :).]

According to my S&W book, it is the 2nd change for the Hand Eject model. Called the factory and they thought it was made about 1920.

If it has ever been shot, it was sure cleaned up perfectly.

This will go with my 1915 era Colt Police Positive in the same caliber, as well as my H&R 732.

Can't wait to get to the range with these revolvers. The only one I ever shot was the Colt.

Wowser, that's a beaut. 1920, eh? It's in astonishingly good shape for 97 years old.

Made in 1920?!? It looks like it just was opened NIB!

Very nice find, and a great addition to your revolver cabinet.
