Here is what the books say about this particular gun:
The military service of the M1917 did not end with the First World War. In 1937, Brazil ordered 25,000 Smith & Wesson M1917s for their military.[5] Now out of service, surplus examples can be identified by the large Brazilian crest stamped on their sideplates. They are sometimes referred to as the M1937 or the Brazilian-contract M1917. The Brazilian model had an altered rear sight, and most were fitted with commercial-style checkered grips, though some utilized smooth grips left over from the United States contract.
