Around 1957, when S&W began using model numbers, they became the model 10. Jim |

I recently purchased a 38 S&W with a three inch barrel for $250.00 and am hoping to find out if it is WW2 era. Its in good shape with only a couple of blemishes near the grip. The markings on the barrel reads, "38 S & M special CTG" Serial number 459***. Can you help? |

On the barrel it is just stamped 38 S & W Special CTG on right side and Smith & Wesson on the left side. It is a three inch barrel with serial number 459XXX

If a 5 shot then mid 1960's. BTW, barrel length on a revolver is measured from the face of the cylinder to the end of the muzzle. Jim |

So, is $250.00 a bit much for the gun Jim, or did I do ok by spending that on the 38?

Anything is possible. But, without any police department markings on the gun or documented history, there’s really no way to know.
