The right side-plate is marked with an S&W logo which has "SMITH & WESSON / 1852-1977" above it and "125 YEARS" below it. The right side of the frame has the four line "Marcas Registradas" address. The barrel has a serrated ramp front sight with a red insert that is coupled with a white outlined, click adjustable, micrometer rear sight. The grips are Goncalo Alves target grips with silver-colored S&W logo medallions. The grain on the bottom of the grips was matched and 'book-ended".
