[QUOTE="zipty6, post: 3511830, member: 19401"] SCSW4 places C369827 in the 1954-1956 range. It appears to be in great shape, especially considering the age. Here are some things to note when comparing it to others of the same era or a little earlier. [INDENT]I has the correct style "high horn" magna grips. It has the "speed action" or short action and the current style hammer. It has a square butt.[/INDENT] The grips and overall condition match the seller's story about it being pretty much unused & unaltered. Some collectors prefer the older long action. I've also read that round butt snubs of this era are a bit more collectible. All of that being said, everything pictured looks fantastic. If the right side matches the left it's a great piece that will hold value far better than the standard compact 9mm. [/QUOTE]
