- While the Smith and Wesson K-frame revolver serves as the standard for double action revolvers in the world, many are unaware that its roots go all the way back to the turn of the century. In this GunTec presentation Larry Potterfield, Founder and CEO of MidwayUSA, examines a Smith and Wesson model 1905 Military and Police 4th Change double action revolver. This gun features a checkered, exposed hammer, six shot fluted cylinder, and a six inch barrel. It is chambered for the 38 Special cartridge. This model has been in continuous production with numerous changes since 1899.

Love it. Got one from 1921 and they made these revolvers to last. Everything's still squared away, bore's in great shape. Functions beautifully, especially for a gun from just after WWI.
Excellent firearm. Have shot thousands of rounds through mine. Great target shooter. Thanks for the post!
I just purchased John Henwood's 1997 book titled, "Right Arm Of The Law: Smith and Wesson's Military and Police Revolver." Unfortunately as this book is very limited edition
with 500 or 600 printed, the shooting public won't enjoy reading as I will. That is a shame too.
So what more can be said about this classic, venerable, versatile, and historical American
handgun which was designed the Model 10 in 1957? Considering it has been produced since
1899 and continues to date is totally amazing!
love the k frame
I got one in 32.20 with original grips
December of 1920, sounds like that one made a fine Christmas gift for someone.
I love guns.
This just might be my favorite revolver ever made... though the nickel plating is an absolute no no. My pistol would have a nice blued finish and it would have a round butt handle. I would wear one of those ammunition belts across the chest with one pistol at my side and the other concealed in my vest. Now that is a true bad-ass American style loadout :)
so cringe🤦♂️
Hi Larry, I’m trying to find a video that describes the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th changes. Also, what’s the difference between the 1902 and the 1905? Thanks.
thank you so much larry FINALLY somebody from outside of kentucky that says Louisville right. IT'S NOT LouEESEville!!! the "IS" is silent
I have a year 1921 1905 Military & Police 4th Change. Looks exactly like this one:.6" barrel, nickel plating, stocks, and all.
I have my grandfather's. A fun and reliable little plinker.
Mine is a .38 S&W not the .38 special. Still a fun shooter.
Probably made for UK or a Commonwealth country
I think your videos are awesome. You Is give a lot of good information in a short format.
Dang that’s one quiet revolver!
I have one from 1929. Great shooter and much lighter feeling than the model 10. Great piece. 👍
I wish someone had a video explaining the difference between the 1st and 4th changes.
Un verdadero maestro armero, excelente tus vídeos!
Can i use it with modern munición???
Yes! But don't use +P or +P+
You can use 90 gr to 158 gr standard pressure ammo.
Oh thank goodness I finally found this video it helped me out a lot I recently got my hands on a nice chrome-plated one and for the life of me I couldn't figure out what model it was because I could not find a model number on this weapon so I've been stuck scouring RUclips looking for visual hints because there's not enough to go on on this weapon but now that I know what it is I'm happy
I have the same model of 1905 4th change. It has an erector rod issue. It is difficult to swing out the cylinder for reloading ammo. The rod hangs or sticks. Do you do repairs on this model. It was made in 1920.
Make sure it's screwed in all the way and also that it's not bent.
I've got this exact one woth the rounded grip and 4 inch barrel, any idea what they go for?
Are these the original grips? I know of one exactly like it, and was told they weren't. Asking for a friend.
Because there are models of revolvers by Smith & Wesson, which have logo type on the right side and others on the left side, does that mean something
I was bored and I was researching my grandfathers gun we got after he passed away in early 2000. He was in WWII and was MP in the Army. I believe this could be the same model as in this video.
Possibly a S&W Victory revolver. Basically the same weapon.
Are the components to this revolver interchangeable with the k frame revolvers?
What would a weapon such as this be worth
