44 Smith & Wesson 1ST Model "Triple Lock" (1907-1915)
The first large framed Smith and Wesson Hand Ejector model. Now referred to as an N frame revolver, but for many decades was known as the 44 frame. The .44 S&W Special was developed in conjunction with the revolver. The 1ST Model is called the Triple Lock due to the fact that it had three locks. The rear cylinder lock, the ejector rod lock and a frame mounted lock for the cyclinder crane. It is identified by the ejector rod shroud. The Triple Lock was discontinued in 1915. See the British Smith & Wesson Mk II Hand Ejector.
