Smith & Wesson Revolver 38.spec

 Smith&Wesson Mod. 36 (Chiefs Special), .38 Special, 2" barrel, for hunters or collectors Smith & Wesson Brands Inc. is North America's largest manufacturer of firearms, based in Springfield (Massachusetts). The company was founded in 1852 by business partners Horace Smith and Daniel Baird Wesson under the name Smith & Wesson, Norwich, Connecticut.After the partnership began in 1852, Horace Smith and Daniel Wesson developed and patented a magazine pistol. The timing of the development of cartridge revolvers proved to be favorable, as the Civil War, which broke out five years later, created a strong demand for "Smith & Wesson" products. After the end of the Civil War, Smith & Wesson established itself in the civilian market with its Model No. 3. In 1964, the Wesson family sold the company to the conglomerate Bangor Punta. In 1984, this conglomerate, and thus also Smith & Wesson, was acquired by the Lear Siegler Corporation. Subsequently, Smith & Wesson refocused on its core business, and activities in other sectors were abandoned. Since the 1850s, the partners Smith & Wesson have primarily manufactured firearms (revolvers, pistols) and ammunition. Later, a wide range of equipment for police and other security forces was added. Smith & Wesson products are considered high quality in terms of quality, safety, accuracy, and durability. By the end of the 19th century, Smith & Wesson began developing revolvers with a one-piece closed frame and a fixed barrel. One of the reasons was the introduction of ammunition with smokeless powder and higher ballistic performance. The result was the still-manufactured revolver with a side-swinging cylinder, as developed by Colt in 1884. To reload, the cylinder was swung out. The Smith & Wesson Model 36 (also known as the Chiefs Special) is a revolver for .38 Special. It is one of several models of J-frame revolvers. It was introduced in 1950 and is still in production in the classic Blued Model 36 and the stainless steel Model 60. The Model 36 was designed in the era shortly after World War II. For the Model 36, S+W aimed to design a revolver that could fire the less powerful (compared to .38 Long Colt or the .38 S&W) .38 Special. Since the older I-frame could not handle this load, a new frame was designed, which became the J-frame. The new design was presented in 1950 at the Convention of the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) and was well received. A vote was held on the new revolver, and the name "Chiefs Special" won. Manufacturer: Smith & Wesson Brands Inc.Model:  36 (Chiefs Special)Caliber: .38 SpecialBarrel Length: 2"Hammer and Trigger case-hardenedFixed SightCylinder Capacity: 5 cartridgesDA/SA TriggerFinish: bluedIdeal backup weaponWood grips with checkering and S&W logoas far as can be seen, matching numbersvalid proof, Germanoriginal proof marks presentvery good condition =========================================================================================Important information for purchaseInformation on NWR IDs:We absolutely require your NWR identification numbers (NWR IDs) for the transfer of a firearm.•Your personal ID (starts with a P),•the permission ID of your firearms ownership license(s) (starts with an E)•the number of your firearms ownership license or hunting license•the issuing authority and the issue date of your firearms ownership license•your date and place of birthThis information can be found on so-called master data sheets at the firearms authority-------IMPORTANT FOR YOU----------If you sell a firearm to us, you must subsequently have this firearm proactively removed from your firearms ownership license by your authority.This does not happen automatically!---------------------------------What we need for courier shipping:*Your complete delivery address where you can be personally reached between 8:00 and 17:00*Your phone number where the courier can reach you if necessaryEWB items are shipped exclusively within Germany.After payment is received in the following account, the goods including the invoice, on which you will find all relevant data, will be shipped to you by courier.
