Description Update 11-15-2024: There are some scattered small spots of old oxidation mostly along the right side

serial #12030, 22 LR, 10'' barrel with an excellent bore. This fine Model 1891 single shot pistol retains about 92% original blue showing handling marks, high edge wear, thinning finish on the muzzle end of the barrel with other areas mostly visible under strong light. The hammer retains strong case-hardened colors with operational marks while the triggerguard has muted colors toning to gray and the smooth trigger is bright. The un-numbered diamond checkered factory hard rubber extension grips feature S&W monograms and rate excellent. This gun features a Paine front sight, adjustable rear sight with a higher square notch replacement slider (blade), the barrel is correctly numbered to the gun while the extractor is numbered to another gun, and the top latch is un-numbered. Barrel to frame fit is tight, the action remains crisp, the serial number appears on the butt, and the barrel is marked ''MODEL OF '91''. This gun does not appear in the Neal & Jinks book. A very good First Model. (8B10826-476) {ANTIQUE} [Dr. W. Lloyd Hudson, Jr. Collection] (1200/1800)
