Product introduction
Before S&W moved to the model number system in 1957, when the M36 was still called the ".38 Chief Special" (commonly known as the Pre-M36), the square butt frame type was modeled up.
Among them, in the movie "JOKER" (2019), which swept many movie awards, Joaquin Phoenix played Arthur, and reproduced the pre-M36 as a model gun, which was the trigger to fall into "Joker".
In the early 1950s, the square butt specification was added to improve the grip feeling, which was unpopular with Americans with large hands in the early 1950s.
Although it is a concealed revolver, there is a contradiction in that it is larger with a square butt, but once you hold it, you can feel that you can grip it firmly.
In addition to the characteristic square bat grip mentioned above, the model gun also reproduces the 4-screw type of side plate that is characteristic of that era.
The characteristic stepped flat thumb piece seen in the pre-M36, which is taller than the M36 early model, was also newly produced.
It is a niche model in the history of S&W J frame, but it is a rare model that certainly existed. This time, it finally appears as a firing model gun.
