As i remember without looking it up.....the SW model 3 in 44 Russian was single action
The SW 1st model DA in 44 Russian was double action....i think without getting up and googling serial numbers mine is an 1882 model
They look quite alike......superficially anyhow....mine is very cherry but the TOTW loads by GOREX.....boxed by GOREX anyhow are light BP
i had never seen GOREX but as powder but nonetheless that is the boxing
And of course to further confuse models of that era that looked quite alike is the Frontier model which i think only carried 44-40 also DA
Well, you live and learn. Thanks for the reply.
