From what I understand, smokeless was tested for the revolver at least twice, once early on, and a second time with the strengthened 1929 upgrade. Evidently, these Swisstests proved unsatisfactory, so they just kept on with the black powder loads for the revolvers right up to the end. Obviously, all their auto loading pistols from 1900 on used smokeless only.
