Smith & Wesson Model 57 N-Frame revolver chambered in .41 Magnum, a powerful and well-balanced cartridge paired with one of Smith & Wesson’s most respected large-frame revolver designs. Based on the serial number range (N134728), this revolver was most likely produced in the mid-1970s, during a period some regard as a high point in S&W fit, finish, and mechanical quality.
This revolver remains in solid overall condition, showing honest wear from previous use and handling. There are numerous visible areas of finish wear on the frame, cylinder, and barrel, with heavier wear concentrated near the muzzle. The six-shot swing-out cylinder operates smoothly and locks up tightly. Action is both double and single, with a very smooth double-action pull and a notably short, crisp single-action break.
The trigger is fitted with a wide target-style trigger shoe, offering increased surface contact compared to the standard trigger and aiding in precise control during slow fire. A widened hammer spur is also present, providing improved leverage and comfort when drawing the hammer. The original Smith & Wesson wood grips show some finish wear, edge fraying, and scattered nicks consistent with age and use, but they remain intact, functional, and comfortable in the hand.
Factory iron sights include an adjustable rear sight and a fixed front blade featuring a red/orange plastic insert for quicker sight acquisition and improved visibility. Mechanically, the revolver presents well and retains the smooth, deliberate feel expected of a classic N-Frame Smith & Wesson.
The Model 57 occupies a special place in American revolver history, combining serious power with refined handling. Whether destined for a collection, range use, or appreciation as a vintage Smith & Wesson from its golden era, this revolver delivers a compelling mix of history, performance, and enduring appeal.
