Smith & Wesson Model 1 1/2

Original Item: Only One Available. This is an American classic, first introduced in 1865 and produced continuously until 1892. The Smith & Wesson Model 1 1/2 was Smith & Wesson's second .32 caliber revolver, intended to combine the small size and convenience of the .22 caliber Model 1 with the larger caliber of the 6-shot "belt sized" Model 2, which was introduced in 1860. Chambered in .32 cal, its cylinder held 5 shots. It was produced in three varieties, termed "issues" by S&W, with total production exceeding 223,000. The First Issue Model 1 1/2 had an non-fluted cylinder and a flat bottomed "square" grip, and was chambered for .32 rimfire ammunition, and approximately 26,000 were produced. The majority were produced with ​3 1⁄2-inch barrels, however a less common 4-inch barrel variety was also sold. Models were available in blued or nickel-plated finishes. This is a nice strong example of the Model 1 1/2, 1nd Issue Revolver with a standad 3 1/2" barrel. Standard blued finish, now worn and faded, with rosewood grips. Produced by Smith and Wesson from 1865-1868, this was the firm's first iteration of the .32 rimfire tip-up, with a less streamlined look than the later second and third models. The original Smith & Wesson address and patent dates are still easily readable on the top strap:
