I am a lifelong Florida duck hunter, age 60, and found this site because I inherited my father-in-law's DW .357 revolver, which I think is a Model 15.  I also inherited a .38 S&W service revolver and a cool Colt 1917 .45ACP military revolver. Began to shoot these three at my club, I was amazed at how smooth, comfortable and accurate (despite being a handgun newbie) the DW was.  I fell in love. Having read up on DW history, I am still curious about my gun and plan to research it more here.

Thanks for providing this forum.

Welcome. Oddly, I have a Model 15, a S&W Model 1905 .38 Special service revolver, and a Model 1917 .45. You have a good stable there. Enjoy shooting them all. I like the trigger on my DWs better than the others though. 

Like DA....64 said, a pic would be the best way to help you identify the DW model. Good pics of the words on the barrel and frame will help to establish info too.

To the paranoid people who check behind shower curtains for murderers:

if you find one...what's your plan?
