About Real S&W M49 Revolver

The Smith & Wesson Model 49, also known as the S&W M49 or "Bodyguard Airweight," is a compact, snub-nosed revolver introduced by Smith & Wesson in the late 1950s. It is part of the company?s renowned J-frame series, which is designed for concealed carry and personal defense. The Model 49 is a steel-framed version of the earlier Airweight Model 38, which featured an aluminum alloy frame to reduce weight. Chambered in .38 Special, the M49 typically holds 5 rounds and features a 2-inch barrel, making it highly concealable. Its most distinctive design element is the shrouded hammer, which allows for single-action cocking while reducing the risk of the hammer snagging on clothing during a draw?hence the "Bodyguard" name. This design was favored by law enforcement officers and civilians alike for its reliability and ease of carry. The revolver became popular during the mid-20th century as a backup weapon for police officers and a primary carry gun for civilians seeking a dependable, snag-free revolver. Though newer polymer-framed semi-automatic pistols have largely replaced revolvers in the concealed carry market, the S&W Model 49 remains a respected classic among firearms enthusiasts and collectors. Later variations, including models with different finishes and materials, were produced, but the original M49 is remembered for its rugged simplicity and effectiveness as a personal defense firearm.
