Documented Smith & Wesson New Model 3 Target Single Action Revolver with Factory Letter

The included factory letter confirms the .38-44 Gallery caliber, barrel length, adjustable rear sight, finish and checkered hard rubber grips. The revolver was shipped on 2 November 1899 and delivered to A.S. Hutchins (no address). Note that all frames were manufactured by 1898, making the gun an antique. The revolver has the one-line barrel rib address, matching numbers on the butt, cylinder, barrel and barrel latch: and casehardened hammer and trigger guard.

ConditionFine. The revolver retains 60% original polished blue finish with the balance a smooth brown patina. The hammer and trigger guard retain 80% original case colors. The grips are excellent with some minor handling marks (mostly near the bottoms) and overall crisp checkering. The action needs work as the cylinder is out of time.
