Oh jeez, I've been keeping an eye out for something just like this! Pm sent.

That looks like a "CS1"...you may want to look that up and make mention of it in your ad; as they're quite desirable, other than already being a pre-MIM and pre-lock S&W

It does, doesn't it.

If so, its too bad someone polished it all up.

Petes, check that out and see if it the inside part of the frame opposite the crane does indeed say CS-1 or CS 1. Kinda looks like it does in the pics and being a no-dash with round-butt makes me think it may well be. If it is, you might want to rethink the price and get out to a bigger audience (like gunbroker) where a collector might snatch it up for quite a bit more that what you're wanting here.

The "M" says it went back to Smith & Wesson at some point in its life for the "recall" as it were.

CH 139, Robinett 11b,
Thank you for your information. I just did my homework on the CS-1 and yes indeed these are real collectable. The online prices are well above what I was asking.
Thanks
