NEW DEPARTURE Antique SMITH & WESSON .38 Safety Hammerless “LEMON SQUEEZER” 5-Shot S&W Top Break SELF DEFENSE DA Revolver
Description: NEW DEPARTURE Antique SMITH & WESSON .38 Safety Hammerless “LEMON SQUEEZER” 5-Shot S&W Top Break SELF DEFENSE DA Revolver Here we present an antique 3rd Model Smith & Wesson .38 Caliber Double Action Safety Hammerless Revolver, made between 1890 and 1898 in Springfield, Massachusetts with a serial number range of 42484 through 116002. 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 known as "The New Departure" to reflect the company's new approach to designing revolvers. These were called “Lemon Squeezers” because of the grip safety that had to be “squeezed” to fire the revolver. These were petite and handy little guns that chambered 5 cartridges, perfect for the pocket and enough to get out of most scrapes. With gangsters, and career criminals running rampant, this example would have been the “pocket advantage” a person needed. Although not necessarily a household name, these little revolvers make appearances in major feature films like “There Will Be Blood” and “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.” It doesn’t stop there either. Video games, TV series, and even some anime showcase these wonderful pieces of history. The overall condition is excellent. Original nickel and blue finish is preserved. Strong, tight action all the way around. Shiny bright bore with sharp rifling. Fine grips with minimal evidence of any handling. Numbers match. Markings are legible. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 3-1/4 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 $2000 #251115 Antique: Yes Price: $2,000.00 Buy Now Pay with
