Comment: At the first part of WW1 the S&W 455 mod 1 "TripleLock" had a shroud protecting the hand ejector rod and could have potentially become unreliable in the muddy trenches due to the the tight manufacturing tolerances, the second model solved this by eliminating the hand ejector shroud. It would be very interesting if this old girl could talk , it appears to have once belonged to a MR WAGNER, his name is on the underside of the grip ,I can't find any info on this , but it has come from South Africa ? all in all it has seen use as there is very little original finish on it, but it is mechanically fine , all matching numbers, showing the patina of its age. Sold out of service mark , plus various other British markings
