Description:
Antique SMITH & WESSON No. 2 “OLD ARMY” Revolver
Made Post-Civil War Circa 1870
Here we present an antique Smith & Wesson Model No. 2 Old Army Revolver, made circa 1870 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 rough. Traces of original blue finish remain with a dark patina throughout. The markings are clear. The right grip is hanging in there. There is a bit of wobble at the barrel hinge. The bore is in good condition with nice rifling. The trigger return spring is not functional so the trigger must be manually pushed forward for the hammer to remain cocked.
Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.
Barrel is 6 inch octagon.
Caliber: .32 Rimfire
