The Smith and Wesson 3rd Model Hand Ejector in .32 S&W Long

The Smith and Wesson 3rd Model Hand Ejector in .32 S&W Long was produced from 1917 until 1942. A further refinement of the I-frame series of revolvers introduced in 1896, it continued the evolution of S&W's first model that incorporated a swing out cylinder.  With more petite dimensions than the J-frame, which is the foundation of the immensely successful S&W Chief's Special, the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Model Hand Ejectors are delightful to own and shoot.  They also carry well in a belly band.
