1920s Era SMITH & WESSON “New Departure” .32 Safety Hammerless REVOLVER C&R

5-Shot ‘LEMMON SQUEEZER” Conceal Carry Revolver

Here Ancestry Guns presents a C&R Smith & Wesson 3rd Model .32 Caliber Double Action Safety Hammerless Revolver, made circa the 1920s with a production run of 1909 through 1937 in Springfield, Massachusetts with a serial number range of 170,000 through 242,981. The Smith & Wesson Safety Hammerless models were produced from 1887 (1888 for the .32) to just before World War II. They were chambered in either .32 S&W or .38 S&W with a five-shot cylinder. They were most often produced with a 2-inch, 3-inch, or 3.5-inch barrel. But some 6″ barreled versions are known to exist.

This revolver was made to be a simple, compact and reliable firearm that one could carry in a pocket or a holster around the turn of the 20^th Century. This revolver features an internal hammer design to remove risk of snagging or stopping the action. There is a grip safety built into the back of the grip frame. The frame is a top-break design that activates the automatic ejector.  These are very nice features from the turn of the 20^th Century! They were known as “The New Departure” to reflect the company’s new approach to designing revolvers.

The overall condition is fine. Original finish is preserved. Excellent action. The bore is bright with strong rifling. Markings are crisp and clear. Both grips are fine. Numbers match.
