Description:

This model was manufactured in 1868-75 with this example being in well above average condition and is well worthy of the finest collection. The top of the barrel rib has the standard one-line address/patent dates marking. The right grip panel is numbered to the gun. Matching assembly marks appear on the grip frame, cylinder, and barrel.

Rating Definition:

Excellent, retaining 95% plus bright original high polish blue finish with some hints of brown patina visible on the cylinder. The hammer and ejector rod retain most of the striking original case colors. The grips are also excellent with a few handling marks and nearly all original varnish remaining. Mechanically excellent. This is a standout example of a S&W Number 1/2 2nd Issue revolver.
