I RECENTLY PUT IN LA YAWAY THE ABOVE IN .38 SPECIAL W/4 INCH BARREL, BLUE FINISH.SERIAL# 6794XX I THINK.THE BUTT HAS SOME ALPHA/NUMERICS BUT I CAN'T REMEMBER WHAT. THE WEIRD PART ARE THE GRIPS. THEY ARE A CHEESEY BLACK RUBBER. THE RIGHT ONE HAS THE REARING STALLIONAS PART OF THE GRIP. THE LEFT ONE HAS ATHUMB REST WITH NO STALLION. HAS A SMALL IMPORT MARK THAT SAYS NORTHFIELD MASS. I THINK. I JUST WONDERED IF THESE MAY HAVE BEEN SENT OVERSEAS AT ONE TIME. I ONCE SAW ONE MARKED R.H.K.P. ON THE BACKSTRAP BUT NOT ON THIS ONE.THAT LEFT GRIP HAS ME PUZZLED.ALSO A BALLESTER MOLINA THAT HAS THE CLASPED HANDS MARKING LIKE THE CREAST ON A ARGIE MAUSER. NEVER SAW THAT MARK BEFORE. THANKS
