... this gun's heft could do double duty as a sledgehammer. It was sold in the late 1860s and early 1870s.

Some of the distributors gave these guns curious names, with this gun nicknamed the "Bulldozer."

The upside is that it absorbs most of the recoil from this diminutive cartridge.

Now, to find a fresh recoil spring for it ...

A few 1sts for the 1st.

My research focuses on the Smith & Wesson Model 1. Here are six examples from 1857 to 1860. All in the old .22 black powder rimfire round.

(4/4) The gun was discontinued in 1921, and Smith & Wesson's correspondence back then recommended that people stick to .22 Short cartridges in these because of the gun's fragility. #smithwesson #smithandwesson #smithandwessonpartner #22long #rimfire #ladysmith #oldgun #oldguns #revolvers #pewpew

Everything is right about this @Smith_WessonInc .44 Hand Ejector from 1940. The target sights, the custom Kearsarge grips, and that snub-ish barrel.

What are you shooting this weekend?

In 1876, Smith & Wesson released the .32 Single Action, which was meant to take the place of the aging Model 1 revolver.

In 1857, @smithandwessoninc made four revolvers. This is the only known survivor from that year.

This early postwar S&W .38 Military & Police was the range winner today. It left the factory in March 1947 for a hardware store in Hopkinsville, KY.

I stumbled across this box of .32 Long Colt at a small rural gun show this morning. Now I need a period correct revolver to go with it.

This brand new Smith & Wesson M&P357C has sat on a shelf for about 15 years. Shoot it or keep it as what may be the world's most pristine M&P357C?

This square-butted Smith & Wesson .38 Military & Police was one of two identical revolvers that shipped on March 28, 1947 to Forbes Hardware in Hopkinsville, Kentucky.

Richard Bates Inshaw was one of the first engraver at Smith & Wesson. This is 1 of only a handful of his known engraved Model 1, 1st Issue revolvers.

The Smith & Wesson Model 2 "Old Army" was curiously named, as it was never officially adopted by the military. This one dates to 1862 and saw hard use.

Smith & Wesson released the .32 Safety Hammerless revolver in 1888. It was chambered in the diminutive .32 S&W centerfire cartridge.

Despite the name it *did* have a (concealed) hammer.

Look closely at the engraving on this Smith & Wesson Model 1 from 1862. What do you see?

The engraver's art was one of secret worlds.
