Overview & History
Founded in 1852 and based in Springfield, Massachusetts, Smith & Wesson is one of the most important names in American handguns, known for its revolvers from early top-breaks and hand-ejectors to the famous Model 29 .44 Magnum. Value depends on the model, era, configuration, condition, and originality, with registered Magnums, early hand-ejectors, and documented examples bringing the most.
