You are correct. The shop I bought it from usually would put this on line. However, the clerk that waited on me advised that they recently changed owners and maybe this one got overlooked.
I just sprang for my first Smith and Wesson letter from Mr. Jinks. I have been advised locally that this gun has not been re-blued, and was made in 1917 (one hundred years old).
I just picked up a real nice S&W Pre-30 in 32 S&W long that I will carefully carry and shoot. The 1917 hand ejector model will not be shot.
