Can't tell from the pics, but the hammer and trigger look shiny-ish.

I was just thinking, today, that a proper 1926 is one of the few Ns I don't have, RM excluded.

Minor correction, the 1926 was the 3rd. Neat story, 2nd models didn't have the shrouded ejector rod, it was dropped from the expensive-to-make 1st. model triple-locks. Complaints, specifically from Texas lawmen, were that bashing heads with their 2nd models would often bend the ejector rod, and tie up the gun. Wolf & Klar Jewelers in Ft. Worth were a major S&W dealer who kept hearing the complaints, and contacted S&W for a guaranteed purchase deal if S&W would catalog a new model with the shroud restored. The deal was made, and the vast majority of the new 3rd, or 1926 model were shipped to Wolf & Klar, especially the 4" guns.

Never say never in the gun biddness, but a rule of thumb you can live by, is that S&W, to anyone's knowledge, never nickel plated the hammers, triggers, or ejector stars on any nickel gun they ever catalogued and sold. Nor to anyone's knowledge I know, did they ever do so on a factory refinish order.

Hey Matt,
How are you doing?

I am very interested in that revolver, however I need to move some safe trash before I can commit.
I am taking some junk to the local gunshow tomorrow and if that goes well I would be happy to take it at your price.

Please don't take this as a firm commitment to buy and anyone who has the cash and wants it, please buy it. You'll not hurt my feelings on it at all. :)

If I pull the cash together tomorrow I'll make you a firm offer and send you my FFL.
Thanks
David
