ANTIQUE Smith & Wesson No. 2 “OLD ARMY” Revolver
Made Post-Civil War Circa 1866
Here we present an antique Smith & Wesson Model No. 2 Old Army Revolver, made circa 1866 in Springfield, Massachusetts. Smith & Wesson purchased the rights to the Rollin White patent for the bored through cylinder, which would forever change the development of revolving firearms. Beginning in 1857 they produced the Number 1, a 7-shot .22 rimfire pocket pistol, which was quite successful. This was fine for the commercial market, but S&W knew they could scale up their design for a pistol that could be worn on the belt in a holster. They began shipping their Number 2 “Army” Revolver, a 6-shot .32 caliber, just 2 months after the beginning of the American Civil War. Smith & Wesson continued to leverage their patent well beyond the war and they remained very popular with the public and on the frontiers.
The overall condition is very good. The metal surfaces have been touched up with blue, with significant original blue showing through. The markings are legible. The serial numbers match, including the nice rosewood grips. The bore is in very good condition. The action is excellent. Here is a fantastic Smith & Wesson with lots of history for your collection.
