This video reviews a 1926/1927 Smith & Wesson Military and Police Hand Ejector chambered in .38 Special. The presenter highlights its 5-inch tapered barrel, replaced front sight, and parkerized refinish. Notably, it's a matching numbers gun with a documented history as a Northbridge Police Department firearm, purchased by the reviewer for $400, significantly less than comparable blued K-frame revolvers.

This video provides an overview and shooting impression of an original Colt Police Positive .38 Special revolver, likely manufactured in the 1920s. The presenter highlights its smaller frame, reminiscent of a .32 caliber, and notes a previous rebluing job that was well-executed. The firearm is shown being fired with vintage Remington Clean Bore .38 Special Police Service loads, featuring 158-grain lead bullets, and the shooter offers observations on recoil and accuracy despite the small sights.
