Notso Slim, SASS #67301 Posted December 4, 2019 Posted December 4, 2019 Is that considered a C&R? or does it have to go though a FFL?
McCandless Posted December 4, 2019 Posted December 4, 2019 Is that considered a C&R? or does it have to go though a FFL? That appears to be Smith & Wesson New Departure (Safety Hammerless "Lemon Squeezer") Second Model with pinned front sight. Mfg'd from 1902-1909. So it would have to go to an FFL 03 (C&R) or your local FFL 01, 02, 07 etc.
Cholla Posted December 5, 2019 Posted December 5, 2019 If I recall correctly a six-inch model of the older version was used for army testing in the late 1880s. It's a cool piece and looks to be in great shape. I just sold one that was slightly newer, but it looked as though it had gone through the army testing. The shop I sold it to turned around and sold it for almost the same price as this. Had it looked like this I would not have sold it.
Spittin Lead, SASS 51230 Posted December 5, 2019 Author Posted December 5, 2019 Serial number is 1639xx. Yes its safe for smokeless powder. If I remember correctly it a 3rd gen.
McCandless Posted December 5, 2019 Posted December 5, 2019 Serial number is 1639xx. Yes its safe for smokeless powder. If I remember correctly it a 3rd gen. If it's a Third Model, that would put it from 1909-1937, would definitely need to go to some kind of FFL. There is overlap of serial numbers, second model from numbers 91,418 - 170,000... Third model numbers are 163,082 - 242,981 Second models had a pinned front sight and a T-shaped latch, third model had a forged front sight. But, things weren't always "written in stone" features overlapped as well as numbers. Nice! And would definitely make a nice pocket pistol side match gun. BTT!
