This is a fine looking and complete 1865 production Smith & Wesson model No. 2 Army. This one has the serial number of 43,828 which is just outside the production numbers of the Civil War. According to the book it would have been made in the latter part of 1865. According to Flayderman serial number 35,731 was made on May 1st 1865. That year they started at 29,359 and ended at 48,475. It has the full-length 5 inch barrel and along the top of the barrel it has the "SMITH & WESSON SPRINGFIELD, MASS" maker marking and production location. The action on the gun still functions. The cylinder is the correct early style that has the 6 shot cylinder and you can still read some traces of the 1855, 1859 & 1860 patent dates. The handle has the original 2-piece walnut grips present and they have a pleasing look to the rosewood. The barrel of the gun has a gray surface metal with a nice looking amount of the original factory bluing. These Smith & Wesson revolvers were utilized during the Civil War by well-to-do officers including General Grant and General Custer. This is a nice complete Civil War .32 caliber rimfire revolver with a very pleasing look that displays quite well for the price.
