Since it's founding in 1852, Smith & Wesson have been leaders in innovative firearm technology and continue to this day. Horace Smith and Daniel Wesson's early partnership supplied the U.S. calvary with their early Model 3 American revolver and to this day are a leading supplier for the United States military with a reputation for quality and performance.

- outstanding gun - Review by rev jeff

S/W does it so well with this beauty. Small, well built, good looking and very relable with plenty of punch with the +p ammo. Sights are functional, trigger is smooth for a DA/SA gun and as always with S/W well built. (USA). Easy and light to carry, very concealable, easy to operate and flawless in function. Small spur hammer covered by shroud makes it nice although a bit hard to get my thumb on hammer for S/A if desired. Far exceeded my expectations for a small gun as far as hitting what I am aiming at goes. Love this gun..... feel safe and concealed when ever and wherever I go!
