Model 3 Russian in excellent condition
Yes, it is a very nice original Smith #3. I know Uberti, etal, make good copies but I don't think they forge letters from S&W's Jinks (see background of the first picture) nor do they inscribe the barrel with the correct S&W address, etc. This is the real thing. I have no idea how it stayed so nice but it did. Some collector will get a very nice addition.
