Rare S & W Wesson favorite .44 Russian

Description:
Price reduced.....Another great item from Gainesville Pawn! Up for sale is a S & W  Wesson Favorite. One of only around 1,000 manufactured circa 1882-1883, the Smith & Wesson Favorite is rarely found on the American market; while hard details are scarce, it is recorded that many of the Favorites were sold and shipped overseas, with only a very limited number held by domestic collectors. The signature feature of the Favorite is a series of steps taken by Smith & Wesson to reduce the weight and alter the balance of the revolver, as compared to other .44 Top Breaks, including a lightning groove cut into the top of the rib, a slight rebating of the cylinder just ahead of the stop notches, and a lightning groove cut into each side of the frame below the cylinder. This one is possibly the second best known. It retains 60 percent of it's factory Nickle, great pearl grips and works as it should.
