One of my customers at work texted me yesterday that he was buying several Colts from a friend that inherited them. There were a couple Smith revolvers, and I should come look at them.
They didn’t want guns in the house, make me an offer.

Picked up this M&P 1905 4th change, must be early, no trademark or made In USA
I’d guess 1915-1920

Also got an early flat match 34 kit gun, 22lr

They were pretty good shape for being stored over 30 years, little surface rust but mechanically perfect and show little wear otherwise

There was an early 36 that another relative wanted, and a badly reblued 32 hand ejector
Didn’t get those

Bonus guns were an Inland M1 that is a little rough, and a circa 1920 Winchester 1894 30WCF that is rough also but will be a good shooter I’m sure, Wood is actually good, just improper storage has taken its toll on the metal.
Will clean them up and see what we get, might be better than I think.

Thanks, its a Korean War vintage 30 Carbine ammo crate.
My buddy gave it to me after he shot all the ammo up, I didn't have the heart to tell him what an unopened crate of that ammo would be worth to a collector.

Two beautiful S&W revolvers for sure.

Very nice!
