I badly wanted a reasonably-priced prewar fixed sight N-frame, and a Greek M1903 Mannlicher-Schoenauer. In the last three weeks I scored on both counts. Pics to follow...

    "At least give us a smidgeon of an idea what pre-war *&* you got"

    It's a Smith & Wesson .44 Hand Ejector Second Model, made in 1921. The serial number makes it the 472nd civilian N-frame hand ejector made after post WWI production resumed on 12/06/20.
