Rare Smith & Wesson Model 38 ''Two Tone'' Airweight Bodyguard Double Action Revolver
serial #J293110, 38 Special, 1 7/8'' pinned barrel with an excellent bore. Similar to the ''Pinto'' guns with nickel and blue parts, this interesting Bodyguard was manufactured for Michigan Police supply with stainless steel cylinders although not much information is found on them. It retains about 99% original blue and anodized finishes showing light marks on the sideplate while the stainless steel cylinder rates excellent. The service trigger and special Bodyguard hammer retain bold case-hardened colors. The checkered walnut factory Magna grips feature silver S&W medallions, are numbered to the gun, and remain in excellent condition with light handling marks. It includes the original factory two-piece box that is correctly end labeled and numbered to the gun, cleaning kit, manual, and paperwork. On the end label's box designating finish it has ''BSS'' handwritten indicating blue and stainless steel. This gun has seen light use and remains in excellent condition. It is an unusual gun sure to intrigue the dedicated collector. (8A10826-677) {MODERN} [Dr. W. Lloyd Hudson, Jr. Collection] (1000/1500)
