Notes:

A most extraordinary example of the Smith & Wesson New Model No. 3 Target in .38-44, shipped in 1895. Nearly flawless, with 98–99% original nickel intact and only the faintest flakes upon cylinder and strap. Boxed with label preserved — a rarity unto itself, as fewer than 3,000 were ever produced in this chambering. A factory letter accompanies, confirming its proud and antique status.
