Characteristics
This is a classic police revolver used by police and military on most continents from the early 1900's until this day. Seen as a prototype, along with Colt revolvers, of most modern revolvers. It uses the K-frame size, like the Smith & Wesson Model 15 and the Smith & Wesson Model 19. Earlier versions, including the forerunner model of 1899 up until 1960, had thin barrels and a rounded front sight. Early versions were chambered in .38 Long Colt/.38 Special and occasionally .32-20 WCF. WWII models were also chambered in .38 Smith & Wesson for the British Commonwealth. From 1960 until today it was fitted with a heavier barrel and ramped front sight. Barrels came in 2, 3, 4, and 6-inch versions.
