Here we present a blue finished antique 2nd Model Smith & Wesson .38 S&W Double Action Revolver, made circa 1880 through 1884 in Springfield, Massachusetts with a total of 115,000 manufactured. This would have been a staple in the early 1880s when having a revolver in one’s possession was almost a necessity, especially in the closing years of the wild west and Indian Wars. The Model 2 in .38 S&W was made in five different variants. The initial model run consisted of 4000 revolvers in 1880. The second model was improved and a total of 115,000 of these were manufactured from 1880 until 1884. The third model made from 1884 until 1895 included 203,700 revolvers. The fourth model was made from 1895 until 1909 and included 216,300 models. The fifth model included 15,000 examples and was discontinued in 1911. The final version of these top-break double-action 38's was the Perfected Model. This version used a top break with a sideplate thumb latch and was made from 1909 until 1920 for a total of 59,400 revolvers. The overall condition is good. Strong action. The bore is semi-bright in good shape. Both grips show an average amount of handling and remain firmly seated. Clear markings. Numbers match. Own the original!
