Allen & Thurber 6-Barrel Pepperbox, .30 Caliber
Description: The Allen & Thurber six-barrel pepperbox pistols were produced from 1837 through 1847 and all had smooth barrels. This example is double-action with the iconic "bar hammer". While simplifying shooting (no manual cocking of the hammer), the bar hammer did preclude the inclusion of usable sights. As these pepperboxes were considered "point and shoot" short range defensive weapons, the market did not object to the absence of sights. Barrel length varied between three and six inches and there were four frame sizes accommodating various calibers. Most common were .32 and .34 caliber, although .28 and .30 caliber "pocket sizes" were manufactured. SOLD Antique: Yes Manufacturer: Serial No. 59. Caliber Info: .30 Caliber. Metal Condition: Fair with pitting and surface rust. Some engraving is still visible on the receiver. Wood Condition: Fair with handling marks. Bore Condition: Dark. Barrels: 3½" 6-barrels. Stock Dimensions: Smooth walnut. Weight: 23-ozs. Item Location: Fort Worth, TX |
