Remington Smoot New Model No. 2 .30RF 2.75” Barrel 5-Shot Revolver, Antique

This revolverremains in very good condition for an antique, retaining about 60% of its original nickel finish with moderate wear and signs of age-appropriate use. The grips appear to be aged but well-preserved replacements, with a good fit and no cracks. The bore shows strong rifling and only scattered light erosion—remarkable for a revolver of this vintage. Mechanical function is sound, with the action operating correctly. The markings are still legible, including the patent date and Remington address on the top rib, which adds to the revolver’s collector appeal.

For collectors of antique American handguns, Remington pocket revolvers, or early metallic cartridge firearms, this Smoot No. 2 offers a rare and historically important acquisition. Its compact design, spur trigger, and solid-frame construction are emblematic of Remington’s innovation in the post-war arms race, and its antique status makes it accessible for enthusiasts without requiring modern transfer.
