Smith & Wesson 48-4 Factory Engraved

The Smith & Wesson Model 48-4 is a beautifully hand-engraved .22LR revolver, featuring rich redwood grips and a second cylinder for added versatility. Complete with its original box and paperwork, this collectible combines classic craftsmanship with practical shooting appeal.

Description

This isn’t just a .22LR revolver—it’s a piece of living history. The Smith & Wesson Model 48-4 has that quiet confidence about it. It doesn’t scream for attention, but once you notice it, you can’t look away.

Let’s start with the engraving. It’s not factory-stamped filler. This is real, hand-cut work—the kind that takes time, patience, and a practiced hand. The kind of detail that invites a closer look, then rewards you with something new every time. Each curve, each line—it’s deliberate, almost personal.

Then your eyes land on the grip. Redwood. Deep, warm, and full of character. It’s got that old-world feel, like something carved more than manufactured. Not just beautiful, either—it’s comfortable. Naturally balanced in the hand. It makes you want to pick it up again, even if you’re not planning to shoot.

And speaking of shooting, this Model 48-4 brings a surprise to the table: an extra cylinder. That’s more than a convenience—it’s a quiet nod to shooters who actually take their collectibles to the range. It adds flexibility, sure, but it also says this revolver was built to be more than admired. It was meant to be used, appreciated, and passed down.

What seals the deal? The original box and paperwork. Still with it after all these years. For collectors, that’s the holy grail. It means the story hasn’t been lost—it’s just been waiting for someone to keep it going.

Whether you’re curating a display case or taking a refined piece of steel to the range, the Model 48-4 bridges the gap between beauty and function. It’s not just another gun. It’s a reminder that some things were made to last—and to matter.
