GunBroker, the largest online marketplace serving the firearms, shooting sports and outdoor industries, and the Second Amendment Foundation (SAF), the nation’s premier defender of the Right to Keep and Bear Arms have teamed up to offer a stunning collector’s set of Smith & Wesson firearms.
This exclusive set of a highly engraved Model 1854 lever-action rifle and a matching Model 29 revolver is being offered through Collector’s Elite Auctions, with the proceeds going to help support the SAF in its fight to protect and restore the firearms rights to all law-abiding citizens.
The set being auctioned is No. 35 out of a 100-unit run of commemorative 1854 rifles and revolvers. The pairing is a natural fit, as the original chamberings for lever actions were in pistol calibers to match the handgun carried on the range.
A beautiful display case showcases the 1854 Limited rifle, a collectible in and of itself as only 1,854 units of this will be produced. The famed Model 29 revolver is the legendary 6.5-inch barreled version in blue carbon steel with walnut grips.
Both the 1854 rifle and Model 29 handgun have been engraved and embellished by famed customization house Baron Engraving. The design is inlaid with 22-karat gold, and the 1854 and Model 29 share complementary designs. Included with the firearms and display case is a letter from S&W CEO Mark Smith, providing provenance to the set’s origin and limited status.
“We are truly grateful for this unique donation by Smith & Wesson to help us in our efforts to defend, secure and restore the Second Amendment,” said SAF Senior Vice President and VP of Development Lauren Hill. “Thanks to great partners like Smith & Wesson and GunBroker, we can continue to fight the demagogues who wish to trample our constitutional rights.”
This and other highly unique and stunning firearms can be seen in the August collection, with bidding going on until August 15th. You can see all the lots at Collector’s Elite Auctions.
