Smith & Wesson 1913 .35 Auto 3.38" Pistol

The Smith & Wesson Model 1913 (often officially called the .35 Automatic Pistol) was Smith & Wesson's first venture into semi-automatic handguns. Produced between 1913 and 1921, it is a blowback-operated pocket pistol heavily influenced by the designs of Belgian engineer Charles Clement. While considered a commercial failure in its day due to the proprietary and underpowered ammunition, the Model 1913 is now a highly sought-after collectible due to its unique engineering and status as S&W's first automatic.
