I think the first S&W rimfire revolvers were quite an elegant mechanical design, and it's too bad they didn't produce a .38RF "tip-up" model, like J.M Marlin did with their "Standard" series of tip-up revolvers.
The cartridges aren't original collectable & really expensive examples, they are like the widely available machined brass cases with off-center primer pockets that use 6mm rimfire starter pistol blanks, and filled with black powder, however, for the photo, the cases are empty and I have seated a .32 caliber or .315" lead round ball.
