Description: Smith & Wesson S&W 25-3 125th Anniversary Commemorative .45 LC Revolver The left side of the barrel is marked ".45 CALIBER", the right is marked "SMITH & WESSON / 125TH ANNIVERSARY". The sideplate has the S&W 125th anniversary commemorative seal. The barrel and side-plate markings are gold-filled. The right of the frame has the four-line Marcas Registradas address. The crane cut is marked "S&W 9814 / MOD. 25-3". There is a brass plate for the mahogany presentation case lid, it is marked "Smith & Wesson / 125th Anniversary Commemorative / 1852-1977". A nickel-silver medallion is included with the S&W 125th anniversary commemorative seal on one side, the other with portraits of Horace Smith and Daniel B. Wesson. The included book is titled "125 YEARS WITH SMITH & WESSON" on the cover and spine and the cover has an inlaid silver-colored medallion with the same portraits of Smith & Wesson found on the commemorative medallion. The grips are two-piece smooth Goncalo Alves target grips with gold-colored S&W medallions. This revolver comes with a mahogany presentation case with blue felt interior with fitted depressions for the revolver, medallion and inside the lid for the book "125 Years with Smith & Wesson" by Roy Jinks with thumb-snap straps to hold the book in place. Felt inside the box has come apart in many places and would need some glue. In 1852, Horace Smith and Daniel Wesson, along with financier Cortland Palmer, began work on their Magazine Pistols, which would go on to launch not just Smith & Wesson but also Winchester. While the Magazine Pistol, later called the Volcanic, would not turn out to be a major success, after obtaining exclusive rights to Rollin White's bored-through cylinder patent, Smith & Wesson began producing cartridge revolvers, and they would continue producing revolvers to this very day. In 1977, Smith & Wesson passed the milestone of 125 years providing the world with repeating cartridge handguns. This is Smith & Wesson's model 25-3, a heavy barreled target revolver chambered in .45 Colt with a 6 ½ inch barrel, adjustable sights, produced to commemorate 125 years of Smith & Wesson. The revolver is in good condition with about 99% of its metal finish, and comes with its presentation case, commemorative medallion and the book "125 Years with Smith & Wesson" by S&W historian Roy Jinks. Revolver does show some handling wear. This will make for a great addition to a Smith & Wesson collection and would make a great addition to any gun room in America. .45 Colt SOLD Metal Condition: good Wood Condition: good Bore Condition: bright Barrels: 6.5" barrel Triggers: SA/DA Butt Pad: wood grips Weight: 2 lbs 12 oz Sights: "The front sight is a serrated ramped blade with red insert fixed to the barrel's serrated rib.
