One note about the S&W M frame, the original LadySmith revolvers...
They were only ever chambered in .22 Long (NOT Long Rifle), and were primarily intended for use with black powder ammunition.
Unfortunately, many have been damaged beyond repair over the years by shooting them with modern Long Rifle ammunition.
A good condition M frame can easily bring four figures, while a pristine target version with the correct box can push five figures.
