A few weeks ago I spent way too much money on this S&W Model 1926 or 44 Hand Ejector, 3rd Change with a 5" barrel, made in 1947. It was a "Grail Gun" and I just had to have it. I finally got in some range time with it late last week and it shot as good as it looks. The group on the left was with Remington 246 gr. RNL factory .44 Special loads and on the right, this group was with Winchester "Cowboy" loads that had a 240 gr. lead flat-point bullet. Shooting was done at 15 yards from a sandbag rest and point of aim was 6 o'clock of the center scoring ring. Not too bad in my estimation...
To carry it, I ordered this 1930 Austin holster from El Paso Saddlery; in the russet color with fish-scale stamping. I paired it with a River Belt and cartridge loop slide. My next project is make up some .44 Special handloads for my Model 1926.
