Smith & Wesson Model 3

The Smith & Wesson Model 3 was a single-action, cartridge-firing, top-break revolver developed in 1869, and produced by Smith & Wesson from circa 1870 to 1874. 
The Smith & Wesson No.3 Russian Model Pattern I (1871) revolver were identical to the Model 3 American, except chambered for the 44 S&W Russian. The following 2nd & 3rd models have many differences, so they are located on their own page.
In 1875, the US Ordnance Board granted Smith & Wesson a contract to outfit the military with Model 3 revolvers incorporating the design improvements of Major George W. Schofield, known as the Smith & Wesson Schofield revolver.

= Smith & Wesson New Model No. 3 =
Introduced in 1878, Smith & Wesson New Model No. 3 was Smith & Wessons perfected single action top break revolver, generally smaller and lighter than previous models. It returned to the original Smith & Wesson barrel latch system, a change stemming mainly from the company's desire to stop paying royalties to George W Schofield. It was, after the Colt Single Action Army, the most popular revolver of the later frontier era, in fact more New Model No. 3s were made than Single Action Armies during the 19th century, though the majority went to foreign military contracts.
