Just Picked Up An Odd One

It's a minty S&W Model 48-3 that is mis-marked as a Model 48 no dash. The 4" versions of the Model 48 are a bit scarce as the 6" & 8 3/8" versions seem to be more plentiful.

Ok! I'm impressed. Any of the .22 mag revolvers are scarce enough, but the 4 inch is actually a ghost. It ranks up there with the 28 gauge Winchester model 12.

Yes, the 4" pre-lock, pre-mim Model 48 revolvers are very scarce. This one cost me $1,300.00. But, that's the advantage of being a member of the S&W Collectors Association. We have a members only forum where a lot of beautiful S&Ws are sold or traded that the general public never has the opportunity to see, let alone acquire.
