Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Smith & Wesson Model 624 Lew Horton Combat Special is a highly sought-after revolver that blends rugged performance with elegant design, crafted as a limited production run specifically tailored for the collector and serious shooter alike. Chambered in the classic .44 S&W Special, this stainless steel revolver was introduced in the mid-1980s as part of the “Model of 1985” lineup. Built on the robust N-frame, the 624 features a 3" barrel—unique to the Lew Horton Combat Special variant—which makes it especially desirable among enthusiasts for its balance between concealability and shootability. The barrel is topped with a pinned 1/8" black insert serrated ramp front sight and an adjustable micrometer-click rear sight, giving shooters precision aiming capabilities uncommon in many carry-sized revolvers. What sets this revolver apart is not only its rare barrel length but also its attention to detail and limited production. Only 5,000 units of this Lew Horton Special were produced, each with a round-butt frame and factory-installed smooth walnut grips featuring finger grooves for a secure and comfortable hold. The revolver maintains the signature S&W double/single-action operation and includes a six-shot fluted cylinder, delivering both nostalgic appeal and real-world performance. The 624 is known for its ten-groove serrated backstrap and forestrap, providing a sure grip under recoil, especially when firing the potent but controllable .44 Special cartridge. Today, the Model 624 Lew Horton Combat Special stands as a prized collectible and a standout example of Smith & Wesson's craftsmanship during a golden era of revolver production.
