Description
Some revolvers impress you with their specs. This one does it with presence.
The Smith & Wesson Model 25-5 (.45 Long Colt) isn’t just a revolver—it’s a tribute to the kind of craftsmanship that made S&W a household name among serious shooters and collectors. Born in 1985, this example has been factory-engraved to perfection and remains a glowing testament to balance, design, and American pride.
The first thing that grabs you is the finish—deep, radiant blue that gleams like liquid glass under the light. It’s the kind of finish that demands a pause before you even think about pulling the trigger. The 6-inch barrel hits that perfect midpoint between precision and handling, making it as comfortable on the range as it is dazzling in a display case.
Then there are the Goncalo Alves target grips—smooth, rich, and adorned with proud S&W medallions. They’re beautiful, yes, but they also feel just right in your hand. Balanced. Grounded. Confident.
This Model 25-5 comes complete with a mahogany presentation case lined in navy velvet, original manual, paperwork, wax paper, and even its cardboard shipping box (missing end label). That kind of completeness is rare—and deeply appreciated by serious collectors.
Engraved, powerful, and remarkably well-preserved, this revolver embodies what makes classic Smith & Wesson firearms so enduring: craftsmanship that refuses to fade with time. It’s not just a gun—it’s a piece of art with a pulse.
