    My Grandfather owned this exact model Smith & Wesson .32 caliber rimfire. One Saturday we took it to the local pistol range and fired CIL Canuck copper cased .32 rimfire long cartridges on it. These were smokeless loads only and the revolver shot well. Accuracy was poor due to severe barrel pitting.

Older generations haven't been able to go thanks to the government these last 2 years. They probably have no choice but to downsize.

    The provenance of this pistol would have to be absolutely authenticated (by somebody other than RIAC) before I would even begin to believe that it was ever in his possession.
    If this is the same pistol that went to auction in 2013, the last owners got it as a "mysterious gift" in 1972 from the family that was at least the third party to allegedly gained possession of the gun from Hickok's effects. Curious how run of the mill pistols can acquire authentication when, in fact, chain of custody is sketchy at best, starting with the understanding that this pistol can't be attributed to Hickok other than by hearsay.

      What kind of 'records' are you hoping to find? A receipt from Acme Mercantile for a sale to "Bill" in Deadwood? A Pony Express delivery slip from Sears & Roebuck to Mr. Hickock's home address? You seek something that doesn't exist. I would argue that since the authenticity of this piece HAS NOT BEEN CHALLENGED IN OVER 50 YEARS speaks volumes. No other piece is in consideration. If there were several making claims, then, okay...but, to this day, there aren't any. That is why it sold at auction. Again.

Receipts and letters can be used to identify change of ownership and custody of a firearm as well.
      That is how you establish provenance. Anything less than that is fairy tales and hokum.

    In present times the History seems to be, for some people, only a motive of shame and guilt, and something to be wiped out.
    The story of Wild Bill is known worldwide now, thanks to the HBO's "Deadwood", and it is incredible to see the S&W Thant belonged to the REAL Wild Bill!
    Hope the gun will stay in the USA.

    If this is the only known no.2 revolver attributed to Wild Bill during deadwood time, we can be pretty sure this is the one when he died, such a important revolver even back in the days, known to be Wild Bills revolver would have been saved and cherished, so the one he wore must be this one, otherwise it had been dokumented that there was two known to be in his ownership, THE revolver he wore would have been saved and talked about extensively at the time.

    So someone paid 616K for that 1851 Navy, of course several publications (and the internet for whatever that’s worth) that Wild Bill had gone to a cylinder conversion a year before his death. It seems there is just as much evidence he carried the cylinder conversion as this S&W. Rock Island knows full well there are over a dozen accounts written going back decades supposedly documenting a certain firearm that was carried by Hickok when he was killed. I have a lot of respect for Rock Island but these Wild Bill stories just keep coming in. It’s like the stories of who shot Ringo or was it suicide!

    False, Wild Bill used 36 Cal. Colts. One came up missing at the time of his death.

      He definitely carried 1851 Colt Navy revolvers earlier in his life. However, multiple respected authors on the topic state that Wild Bill did make a change in his later years.

    Do I believe items belonging to notable persons that supposedly magically appear with no firm provenance or chain of possession are real? If there is a large amount of money at stake, not really.

    • @RockIslandAuctionCompany
      @RockIslandAuctionCompany  2 роки тому

      Because it didn't magically appear. It's a well-known and documented gun that can trace its ownership back to 1876. It's in almost every book that talks about the guns of Wild Bill Hickok. It has been thoroughly scrutinized by historians and authors.
