Bryant Ridge Co. is pleased to present this double-action revolver today for a penny-start auction; this is the Smith & Wesson 37 Chiefs Special Airweight (No-Dash)!!
SPECIFICATIONS:
Manufacturer: Smith & Wesson
Model: 37 Airweight No-Dash
Serial: 232345
Caliber: .38 Special
Finish: Blue
Barrel Length: 2"
Optics/Sights: Serrated Blade Front with Square Notch Rear
Stock/Grips: Checkered Walnut with Inlaid S&W Medallions
Action: Double
Markings: Standard
Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Smith & Wesson Model 37 “Airweight” is a lightweight, five-shot revolver designed as a more portable counterpart to the Model 36 Chief’s Special. The key difference lies in its aluminum frame, which significantly reduces weight while maintaining the same compact J-frame profile. Introduced in 1951 and officially designated as the Model 37 in 1957, it quickly became a popular choice for concealed carry due to its ease of handling and reduced fatigue during all-day carry. This early no-dash example, serial number 232345, features the original design intended for standard velocity .38 Special cartridges, as the alloy frame and early alloy cylinders were not engineered for the pressures of +P or high-velocity loads.

This particular revolver showcases a classic blue finish, a 2-inch barrel, and fixed sights—a serrated blade front and square-notch rear—for quick target acquisition at close range. The checkered walnut grips, complete with inlaid S&W medallions, provide a secure and traditional feel, while the double-action mechanism ensures fast, reliable operation. Combining historical significance, distinctive construction, and the practical advantages of reduced weight, the Model 37 Airweight remains an appealing choice for collectors and those interested in the evolution of S&W’s concealed carry revolvers.
