Cimarron Model No. 3 Russian .44 Russian, 6.5" Barrel, S&W Replica Revolver, Standard Blue Frame and Finish, 2-Piece Walnut Grip Md: CA865
In 1870 the U.S. Army ordered 1000 of the Model# 3 American. Afterwards the U.S. military had no interest in the Model# 3 design. The Russians, unlike the U.S. Military were extremely impressed with the Model# 3 American. In 1871 officials of the Russian Military approached Smith & Wesson concerning the purchase of the Model# 3 Revolver. The Russians suggested a few improvements that were incorporated into the S&W design and a new 44 Russian chambering. The agreed price was $13.00 per revolver. The result was the birth of the ‘Russian’ Model and the purchase of some 130,000 revolvers by the Russian government. Thanks to our more intelligent Russian friends we now offer a great copy of the No. 3 Model Russian Revolver.

The information below comes from our Gun Caliber Dictionary and is for general reference only. It does not describe the specifications of this particular item.

The .44 Russian (.44 S&W Russian) was The .44 Russian, also known as the .44 S&W Russian, is a black-powder center-fire metallic revolver cartridge developed by Smith & Wesson in 1870, another of the very earliest centerfire cartridges. Legend has it that the .44 Russian was developed by Smith & Wesson following Grand Duke Alexis' legendary hunt with William F. Cody, and his admiration for Cody's S&W revolver (in the less powerful .44 S&W). Fact is Smith & Wesson developed a more powerful .44-caliber cartridge, and the Russian government placed a large order. Although the .44 Russian has a fairly short .9701-inch case, the .44 Russian is a powerful cartridge, propelling a heavy 246-grain bullet at 770 fps. The bullet diameter is .4323-inch. The .44 Russian was a major success for Smith & Wesson, with production continuing until 1940. — Craig Boddington
