SCARCE & EXC Smith & Wesson .38 S&W “PERFECTED”
WWI, Roaring 20s Era Sidearm, Made Circa 1918!
Description: SCARCE & EXC Smith & Wesson .38 S&W “PERFECTED” WWI, Roaring 20s Era Sidearm, Made Circa 1918! Here we present a Smith & Wesson .38 Double Action “Perfected” Revolver, made circa 1918 in Springfield, Massachusetts. These were the most highly refined of Smith & Wesson’s Double Action line with an exposed hammer. Over half a million were produced of the first 5 variations from 1880-1911, while only 59,400 of the Perfected revolvers were produced from 1909-1920. These shared their predecessors’ top break, auto-ejecting feature. Its two primary differences included the mechanism by which one unlocked the barrel and cylinder assembly to “break open” the revolver for reloading, as well as the integral trigger bow. Regarding the opening mechanism, the former iterations simply required one to flip the “T” shaped latch at the top; however, the Perfected model required the sliding latch on the left side of the frame to be pushed forward to then move the “T” shaped latch. This revolver was made during the years surrounding WWI and the Roaring 20s, an eventful period without a doubt. It would have made a very handsome and capable personal sidearm without being cumbersome. Its double action trigger pull is impressively smooth and could not possibly be described as heavy. This one is finished in nickel with case colored accents and it really is something that a revolver like this would make it this long in this condition. The overall condition is excellent. 99% of the original nickel finish remains with vibrant case colors and clear markings. The numbers match. The trademarked hard rubber grips are fine. The bore is mostly bright with sharp rifling. The action remains excellent. A gorgeous revolver and a fantastic example of Smith & Wesson’s superior craftsmanship. This firearm is classified as a Curio & Relic. Barrel is 4 inches. Caliber: .38 S&W Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING. Will need to be sent to your local FFL or C&R licensee. This firearm is classified as a Curio & Relic. Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $1200 #190604 SOLD Curio/Relic: Yes |
