Sounds about right James.

Small town cops didn't make much money back then (or now either I suppose). I'm sure when he got promoted to plain clothes, he was looking for something that he could buy cheap and the timing is right for war surplus.

But I think James is right about it being re-barreled. Wouldn't it have to have been in order to shoot the .38 Special?
