Smith & Wesson Model 24-3 .44 Special – 3″ Blued Round-Butt Revolver, Target Stocks (ALA3142)

This Smith & Wesson Model 24-3 is one of the most sought-after modern .44 Special revolvers – a 3" round-butt N-frame with deep polished blue finish and gorgeous checkered target stocks. The short heavy barrel, full-size frame, and classic red-ramp front sight give it a serious fighting-revolver vibe, while the high-gloss blue and figured wood grips make it just as at home in a display case. Finish shows only light handling marks, with crisp rollmarks and a clean cylinder face, indicating careful use.

Chambered in .44 Special, the 24-3 offers big-bore performance with a more controllable recoil impulse than magnum loads. The 3" barrel strikes an ideal balance between concealability and shootability, giving you a useful sight radius and excellent balance in the hand. Adjustable rear sights, a wide target hammer, and smooth trigger make double-action work a pleasure, while the finger-groove target stocks lock the gun into your grip for fast follow-up shots.

Whether you’re a dedicated .44 Special enthusiast, a serious S&W N-frame collector, or just want a beautiful, practical big-bore revolver for carry and range work, this Model 24-3 checks every box. These 3" guns don’t surface often—grab this one while you can.
