Used Smith & Wesson Model 19-3 357 MAG 4" Barrel Combat Magnum

The Smith & Wesson 19-3 is a culmination of design and craftsmanship, exhibiting classic elegance and reliable performance. This revolver's 4" pinned heavy barrel showcases an unblemished bore. The Combat Magnum's immaculate condition speaks volumes of its light use, with the metal surfaces gleaming in about 99% of the original blue finish. This lustrous finish has only some subtle light edge wear. Both the .500" target trigger and .500" target hammer have handsome swirls of case-hardened colors, adding to their charm.

Its grips were carved from checkered goncalo alves, a functional design and aesthetic delight. The factory target grips are embellished with the iconic silver S&W medallions and feature an extractor cut. While these grips remain impressive, they carry hints of their history: a shallow chip and a slight scuff at the edge of the right panel's heel. It is equipped with a Baughman ramp front sight and a black blade micro-adjustable rear sight, providing precision with every shot. From timing to lockup, this revolver's mechanics seem flawless.

The Combat Magnum is an iconic piece in the world of firearms. Its timeless design and known performance create a coveted item for collectors and shooting enthusiasts. The 19-3 stands as a testament to the golden era of revolvers and the enduring legacy of Smith & Wesson.
