Old Colt information

I have an old Colt revolver. 6" blued barrel, 6 shot .38 large frame with open notch rear sight milled into the top strap, half moon rounded fixed front sight. Checked hard rubber grips.
Top of barrel says "Colt's P T P A MFG. CO HARTFORD, CT USA PATENTED AUG. 5, 1884 NOV. 6, 88, MAR. 5, 95"
The left side of the barrel just in front of the swing out cylinder says " COLT D.A. 38"
The butt says "S P F C 39" Serial number on butt is 253 303. Cylinder release has K 6589
No lanyard ring or place for one.
It looks to me like a Colt New Shooting Master with a front sight like a Colt Navy/Marine Model 1905.
I would very much appreciate any help on identifying this gun.
Thank you in advance!
