Does anyone know anything about this gun? Google hasn’t been very helpful. This was my great grandfathers gun, and I’m told it’s an old Chicago Police gun. That’s all I know. If anyone could point me in the right direction as to what exactly I’m holding, that would be great.
Majority of the markings are faded. I did my best to make out what it says though. The left side of the barrel reads “ 38 SW Special U.S. Service CTG’S” and the right side of the barrel reads “PAT’D APR 9 89, MAR 27 94, MAY 21 95, JUL 16 93, AUG 4 96, DEC 22 96, OCT 4 98, OCT 8 01, DEC 17 01, SEP 2 02, JUL 7 03”.
Any help would be tremendously appreciated!
