S&W MODEL 3 SCHOFIELD REVOLVER REPLICA

Q: How does the Schofield top-break system work?

El revólver se abre mediante el cierre situado en la parte superior del armazón. Para accionarlo, primero se debe amartillar una vez la réplica. De esta manera se liberan el cañón y el tambor para que puedan bascular hacia delante, mientras el extractor eleva simultáneamente los cartuchos decorativos.

Q: How does the Schofield opening system work?

The revolver opens using the latch located on the upper part of the frame. To operate it, the replica must first be cocked once. This releases the barrel and cylinder so they can pivot forward, while the extractor simultaneously raises the decorative cartridges.

Q: Are the decorative cartridges ejected when the revolver is broken open?

Sí. El mecanismo reproduce de manera simulada la extracción simultánea característica del Schofield original.

Q: Is it suitable for historical re-enactment and film productions?

Sí. Su diseño, peso, mecanismo simulado y apertura superior la convierten en una pieza adecuada para recreaciones del Viejo Oeste, teatro, fotografía, cine y exposiciones. El uso en eventos o espacios públicos debe ajustarse siempre a la normativa local y a las indicaciones del organizador.

Ref: 47-8755 N/A Categories Revolvers, Western

The Kolser Schofield revolver replica is inspired by the variant of the Smith & Wesson Model 3 known as the Schofield, manufactured during the 1870s.

The original firearm was a single-action revolver distinguished by its hinged frame and top-break opening system. Releasing the latch allowed the barrel and cylinder assembly to pivot downwards, activating the cartridge extraction mechanism.

Kolser’s reproduction features a simulated working mechanism that allows the hammer and trigger to be operated, the cylinder to rotate, the barrel to break open and all six decorative cartridges to be ejected simultaneously.

This non-firing replica is designed for collecting, historical re-enactment, display and film, television and other audiovisual productions.

Top-break opening system

The Schofield was distinguished by its top-break hinged frame. Once the latch was released, the barrel and cylinder pivoted forwards around a lower hinge, activating a central extractor that raised all the cartridge cases together and provided access to the six chambers. This system allowed the cylinder to be unloaded in a single action.

The variant was named after George W. Schofield, a United States Army officer who held patents relating to improvements to this mechanism. Smith & Wesson manufactured Schofield revolvers between 1875 and 1878, with most of the production supplied to the U.S. Army.
