What’s Included
- Smith & Wesson Model 57 no-dash .41 Rem. Mag. revolver with 8 3/8 inch barrel
Built on the N-frame with a square butt, this no-dash engineering revision delivers the classic Model 57 configuration in .41 Remington Magnum. Its six-shot fluted cylinder has recessed chambers, and the long 8 3/8 inch barrel provides a steady sight radius aided by a serrated rib and an ejector-rod shroud.
The sights are set up for precision: a micrometer-click adjustable rear blade with a white-outline notch pairs with a ramped front sight featuring a red/orange insert. This combination supports clear, repeatable alignment for target work.
The revolver wears a high-polish blue finish across the frame and cylinder, complemented by a case-colored hammer and trigger. The barrel rollmarks are gold-filled, adding a distinctive factory detail.
Factory target stocks are checkered wooden grips with S&W medallions, shaped in an oversize style for control in double-action or single-action use. The overall execution reflects Smith & Wesson’s period fit and finish from U.S. production in 1980.
