Just bought this at the gun show. What can you tell me about when it was manufactured, any special traits, etc. I'm new to revolvers, so pardon any mistakes in terminology.

Serial number (on the cylinder swing-out, next to the yoke) 57494. Just below that, in larger type, is stamped C10.

4" barrel, adjustable sight.

Condition is pretty good. Some peening in the "stars" on the cylinder, but the DA functions properly. Locks tight.

The grips and trigger reach are SMALL. Let me know if a digital picture would help. Have digicam.
