This is a Smith & Wesson, No. 2, Old Model Army Revolver. It is a .32 caliber, six-shot revolver with a 5” barrel, rosewood handles. Civil War serial number 3525. Production began in 1861, with 35,731 revolvers being made by May 1, 1865. Total production was 77,155 through 1874.
All gun metal matches with a finely pitted, light gray surface. Stamping on the top of the barrel is strong: “SMITH & WESSON. SPRINGFIELD, MASS.” Brass blade sight on top at muzzle. Cylinder features none of the patent stamping. Bore is clear with scattered oxidation and light rifling. Mechanics are very strong. Pistol has a slight wobble at the hinge, as most do.
Rosewood handles are very good with original dark color and finish.
Nice original example of a popular S & W revolver with low serial number. [jet][ph:L]
