A little pistol, probably a Smith and Wesson that dad brought back from India after WWII. It was missing for most of my life and found when my paternal grandmother died. .22 cal. Single shot. Dad, who was a kid at the time, filed the trigger down so that its VERY light. Unsafe. I shot it a couple of times but it needs work. Falls open when fired.

Thats a pretty interesting gun. You don't have anymore information on what it is?
That looks a lot like a 3rd Model Perfected - but without the barrel rib and with a custom target grips.
Also the trigger-frame line is distinct as on the 2nd model rather than flat like the 3rd, however the top-break pivot pin is closer to the trigger than on 1st and 2nd models, and it appears to have been re-barreled? Maybe a transition piece.
Cool!
That's something like 'Me and Joe' that Sketter Skelton wrote about.
Does it have a slot for a stock at the back?
