Attractive Cased Smith & Wesson Model 1 1/2 1st Issue Revolver

Manufactured from 1865 to 1868. This above average condition S&W Model 1 1/2 1st Issue Revolver features a right grip panel numbered to the gun and matching assembly numbers on the grip frame, barrel and cylinder. The period mahogany case contains a cartridge block holding a full count of 23 rounds.

ConditionExcellent, retaining 90% bright original high polish blue finish with speckling on the balance. 95% original case colors remain on the hammer and trigger. The grips are also excellent with some minor handling marks, limited high edge wear and nearly all of the original varnish remaining. The action needs work as hammer does not hold at the half and full cock positions and cylinder does not lock. The case is fine with minor handling/storage marks and typical high spot wear on the lining. An attractive Model 1 1/2 for your growing S&W collection.
