This gun MAY be a Spanish copy. Many of these were sold in the USA prior to WWII. A bona fide S&W will usually have an intertwined S&W trademark on the LH side of the frame behind the cylinder, and "MADE IN U.S.A."
You guys need to look at more S&Ws and more Spanish copies. This gun is not a Spanish copy, it is a S&W. Look at the profile of the frame, the barrel profile, the ejector rod, the cylinder, etc. None of the Spanish copies were exact, and often they are square butt. This gun is a round butt.
