Looks to me like a S&W model 10 with a heavy barrel in 38 special, like the Model 13, and 65 both 357 magnums. Not bad guns but the heavy barrel model 10 was not produced until after WW2.

I also think it may have been a special order for, say, law enforcement, as if you pay close attention to when the gun slides across the table and is picked up, you can see where a lanyard ring has been removed from the butt of the grip. This set up did not come standard on model 10's, heavy barrel or otherwise, unless special ordered for law enforcement, which the New York State Police DID back in the early 60's. Regards. Michaelson
