Factory product code was 108502 on the FS Fixed Sight variant; this one has factory night sights. The 3953 represents Smith & Wesson's crowning achievement in Law Enforcement market metal frame compact pistols that began in the 1960s with the Devel Custom modified variants of the Model 39 single stack 9mm. This is the lightweight alloy frame type, round serrated trigger guard 3953. This specimen served and protected our fellow in Wisconsin, on duty with the distinguished officers of the Milwaukee County Sheriff’s Department.

The Night Sights still retain 50 to 60 percent of their original luminosity from our own darkroom inspection. Barrel is the highly accurate collared muzzle 3 1/2 inch.

Trigger is .304 smooth faced combat black anodized, with matching .280 hammer that, being DAO, does not stand.
