Here we present an antique Smith & Wesson .38 Double Action Hammerless Revolver, made circa 1887-90 in Springfield, Massachusetts. The Smith & Wesson Safety Hammerless models were produced from 1887 (1888 for the 32) to just before World War II. They were chambered in either .32 S&W or .38 S&W with a five-shot cylinder. They were most often produced with a 2-inch, 3-inch, 3-.5 inch, or 4-inch barrel. But, some 6" barreled versions are known to exist. This revolver was made to be a simple, compact and reliable firearm that one could carry in a pocket or a holster around the turn of the 20th Century. This revolver features an internal hammer design to remove risk of snagging or stopping the action. There is a grip safety built into the back of the grip frame. The frame is a top-break design that activates the automatic ejector. These are very nice features from the turn of the 20th Century! They were known as "The New Departure" to reflect the company's new approach to designing revolvers. This one features mother of pearl grips and a lanyard ring that was set into the bottom of the grip frame. The overall condition is very good. 85% of the nickel finish remains. The markings are clear. The numbers match. The mother of pearl grips are a bit yellow with age and in very good shape. The bore is dark with good rifling. The action is excellent. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 4 inches. Caliber: .38 S&W Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE. Delivered directly to your door by express mail! Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $650 #190195 SOLD Antique: Yes |
