serial #99584, 32 S&W, 3 1/2" barrel with a bright excellent bore. This lovely Fourth Model remains in excellent overall condition, retaining 98% silver finish, thinning lightly throughout with the balance toning to a lovely dark gray tarnish. It shows some very fine high edge wear throughout, focused chiefly at the heels of the gripstrap, with a few scattered light handling marks here or there and very mild oxidation staining visible under direct light. The triggerguard, cylinder, and rear sight latch retain 98% gold-washed finish, showing to silver on the high edges, with the cylinder displaying a mild ring and the hammer toning to a smoky gunmetal patina. This revolver displays handsome foliate scroll engraving with punch-dot backing throughout, absent along the belly, with zig-zag bordering in the protected areas of the barrel rib and intertwined geometric motifs on the rear and top straps. The smooth mother-of-pearl grips remain in pristine condition, showing excellent fit and no handling wear or discoloration to speak of, and the grip screw retains all of its gold-colored finish. Timing and lockup appear sound and the ejector functions robustly with strong spring and snap. Included with this lovely revolver is the original hinged brown cardboard box, correctly end-labeled to the gun and remaining in excellent overall condition, as well as a period chamois purse holster which remains near-excellent showing only light soiling. This is a beautiful and high-condition Fourth Model DA. (26A10826-466) {ANTIQUE} [Dr. W. Lloyd Hudson Jr. Collection] (2000/3000)
