Early production Smith & Wesson Model No. 1½ Single Action (top-break) revolver, serial number 5383. Manufactured circa 1878–1879, this is a solid example of the first centerfire .32 S&W pocket revolver.
Details:
Caliber: .32 S&W
Capacity: 5 shots
Action: Single-action top-break with automatic extractor
Finish: Nickel
Grips: Original checkered hard rubber
Barrel: Standard length (approx. 3½"
The revolver is accompanied by a fitted wooden case with red lining, a period Peters .32 Colt New Police ammunition box, and a brass key/tag.
Condition is consistent with its age. Honest wear to the nickel and grips, with clear markings. Function appears correct based on the top-break action cycling properly. As a pre-1899 firearm it is a federal antique.
A nice early example of one of S&W’s classic late-19th-century pocket revolvers. Ready for a collector who appreciates original top-break Smith & Wessons.
