Smith & Wesson Model 52 - .38 Special

The Smith & Wesson 52 was a rare handgun in that it was chambered for the .38 Special rimmed cartridge. The pistol, however, did not fire the standard .38 Special rounds, common to revolvers, but had to fire a special 'wadcutter' round that was fully enclosed in the brass casing (similar in appearance to the 7.62mm Nagant cartridges fired by the Nagant 1895 revolver). The gun was derived from the Smith & Wesson 39. The Model 52 was produced in very low numbers from 1961-1993. It is considered a very accurate target handgun. The pistol can only take low pressure wadcutters and is not built to withstand the high pressures of its 9x19mm cousins.
