Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
This small revolver, designed primarily for plainclothesmen and off-duty police officers, made its public debut at The International Association of Chiefs of Police conference in 1950. At the conference, the Smith & Wesson sales force asked the police chiefs to vote on a name for the new revolver. The most commonly suggested name was .38 Chief’s Special. Designed with the needs of law enforcement officials in mind, the Chief’s Special proved to be a popular revolver for personal protection due to its size and weight. When Smith & Wesson adopted model numbers in 1957, the Chiefs Special became the Model 36.
Condition/Contents:
This Smith Wesson beauty is GORGEOUS and in consumer-unfired condition, indicated by only a few of the cylinder chambers showing faint powder residue, which is indicative of the factory test fire procedure. It will ship with the factory box, papers, & tools shown in the many photographs provided above!

We gladly offer a 3 day unfired inspection policy from the time that the firearm is delivered to your FFL. Refunds are available for all qualifying orders.
