Payment Types Accepted: checks, cashiers/bank check, money order Description: BEAUTIFUL HIGH CONDITION SINGLE SHOT "PERFECTED MODEL" .22 LR WITH VERY RARE OLYMPIC CHAMBER! This is one of the last made as serial numbers went from 6949 to 11641 and manufactured only from 1909 to 1923, this one is numbered in the 11XXX range and has the rare "Olympic Chamber" 10" barrel, described in the Supica and Nahas book STANDARD CATALOG OF SMITH & WESSON" Some versions found with Olympic Barrels; these engage the bullet nose into the grooves and lands and consequently require the cartridge to be pushed in the last 1/8". Worth premium. Checking this one with a standard .22 LR cartridge confirmed this variation, overall excellent condition with only a slight line of gray coming back from the muzzle on each side of the barrel (from the gun lying on its side), exc. correct oversize walnut target grips show very light handling only and have two tiny chips on the upper under side where it meets the frame- you have to turn the gun upside down to notice them- matching numbers, perfect bright bore, interesting in that this model is supposed to fire single or double action, this one can only be fired single action and was probably ordered from the factory this way- a factory letter would be interesting and probably worth getting for this one. SOLD Curio/Relic: Yes Manufacturer: Smith & Wesson Model: SINGLE SHOT PERFECTED "OLYMPIC CHAMBER Serial Number: 11XXX Caliber Info: .22 Long Rifle Condition: Excellent Barrels: 10 Finish: BLUE |
