S&W revolver, .38 S&W cal..hammerless top break, grip safety, ser.# 246825, barrel stamped, "Smith and Wesson Springfield Mass. Seems to be hard rubber grips with Smith logo. About 95% or better condition. This is my first attempt at posting a pic, I hope it works, but I'll be shocked if it does.

There are no bad guns, only bad people.

    The revolver is of the type called New Departure or Lemon Squeezer, from there, with the serial number you will find out which variation it is.

    After looking in the Blue Book, I think your gun is the fifth model also known as a safety hammerless.1907-1940
