Lipsey's, a nationally renowned firearms distributor, releases the Lipsey's Exclusive Smith & Wesson Model 36 Field Ethos "Tropical" Edition, a bespoke revolver developed in partnership with Smith & Wesson® and Field Ethos — the celebrated lifestyle brand dedicated to the spirit of the outdoors.

Field Ethos has cultivated a passionate following by celebrating rugged exploration, gear excellence, and the unapologetic pursuit of adventure. From global travel narratives to gear evaluations and print journal features, the brand's storytelling transcends typical outdoor media by integrating community voices and real-world experiences into every platform.

This exclusive edition revolver blends classic concealability with refined, performance-driven features. Built on the Smith & Wesson Model 36 J-Frame platform, the all-steel revolver features a polished blued finish and weighs a trim 19.5 ounces. A Performance Center–tuned action delivers a smooth double-action trigger pull, while the bobbed hammer ensures snag-free carry. The revolver is equipped with a gold bead front sight paired with a precision U-notch cut directly into the top strap for a clean, fast sight picture. Premium Tyler Gun Works walnut boot grips and the Field Ethos logo engraved on the sideplate complete the package.

"We're thrilled to partner with Smith & Wesson and Field Ethos on this exclusive revolver," said Jason Cloessner, Senior Vice President of Product Development, Lipsey's. "The features on this model were proven out on the range and not the board room — a carry gun that has a retro look and feel while delivering the performance today's shooters demand." Additionally, Ron Dan, President of Field Ethos, was also eager to unveil this new project. "It's hard to beat a classic Chief's Special for a carry gun. We were able to work with the great teams at S&W and Lipsey's to develop the exact Model 36 we would all want to carry. From the Bastogne grips to the gold bead front sight and the factory bobbed hammer, this gun has as much of a spot on your display shelf as it does in your holster."
