Yes. The Model 60-4 Chiefs Special Full Lug Target. 38 Special, adjustable sights. Produced 1990-1995. Sounds like a 38 Special version of the gun pictured.
There may be others made past the 1996 date of my Catalog of Smith and Wesson.

The Chiefs Special Target-Many years ago a friend of mine, an auxilliary deputy (so he claimed. I had doubts) had such a blue revolver. I believe it was all blueed steel, not alloy. Factory or custom installation, I never knew.

As others have mentioned, yes, S&W did make such a revolver. A few decades ago, I also made one, not stainless but blued. I used a S&W Model 36-1 and installed a S&W J frame adjustable sight. It was a great little revolver!Did smith and wesson ever make a 3 inch J frame in 38 special with adjustable sights? What model? I've always wanted a 3" model 60 but with a 38 only cylinder.
I have this gun. Marked as a 36-1The Chiefs Special Target-

Most were marked as Model 36s but some 580 or so were marked as Model 50s and those are hot collectors items. I've seen a handful of the M36 Targets over the years. Bizarrely enough, they also made a 2" version with the adjustable sights.

I have to ask…What’s on the bullets of those cartridges? It almost looks like polymer with gold flakes when I look at them enlarged on my iPhone.I got a stainless one, pictured here with its big brother, a 686. Someone traded it in on a Glock, along with the box and papers. Very shootable. Notice absence of lock.
