**SOLD**Smith & Wesson 44DA 1st Model in .44 S&W Russian Caliber **Factory Nickel - Mfg 1888-1889**
Description: For consideration is an exceptional example of a Smith & Wesson 44DA 1st model revolver in .44 S&W Russian caliber. When Colt introduced their 1877 model S&W could not afford to be far behind. In 1880 they introduced double-action revolvers in .32 S&W and .38 S&W, and a year later they brought out their big-bore, the Double Action .44. The First Model used dual cylinder locks, one that was activated when the hammer was cocked, with a separate lock holding the cylinder after it was fired. This was later replaced by a single lock that filled both functions. .44 Russian was by far the most common chambering for these guns, but other cartridges like .38-40 were offered in smaller numbers. Barrels were available in lengths from 3-1/2″ to 8″, but most seem to have had 5-6″ barrels. An adjustable sight version was offered was well, but these are quite rare. This gun has factory nickel finish and a 6" barrel with a good bore and strong rifling. Mfg in 1888-1889 it retains a very large percentage of it's original finish. The action locks up tightly in the "fired" condition which is the most important part of the firing cycle. The top bread latch operates fine and the fit of upper and lower is nice and tight. The blued trigger guard has some high edge wear and the hammer and trigger still have good case color hardening. The hard rubber grips have good checkering and are free of cracks or chips. Each grip features the Smith & Wesson medallion at the top. These S&W 44DA revolvers are incredibly scarce in this condition.
