CIVIL WAR Antique COLT Model 1849 POCKET Revolver
Description: CIVIL WAR Antique COLT Model 1849 POCKET Revolver Made in 1862 with Matching Numbers Here we present an antique Colt 1849 Pocket Revolver, made in 1862 in Hartford, Connecticut. Over 280,000 of these were produced by Colt’s factory at Hartford by the end of the American Civil War in 1865. These were very popular and saw much use on the battlefield, on the home front and in the West. These were some of the smallest, handiest pocket revolvers of the time. Though not a primary military arm during the American Civil War, handguns were commonly privately purchased by soldiers for use on the battlefield. Whether legend or fact, it is interesting to note something commonly read about pocket revolvers of the day: that while they could be used for self-defense against the enemy, many soldiers kept them on their person to defend themselves against an unwanted amputation in the primitive field hospitals that were notorious, even in their day. The barrel legend reads “ADDRESS COL SAML COLT NEW-YORK U.S. AMERICA”. The overall condition is good. The revolver has been refurbished. The iron surfaces have been reblued. The markings are clear. The serial numbers match. The walnut grip is smooth and in good shape. The bore is in very good condition with sharp rifling. The action is strong. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 4 inches. Caliber: .31 Percussion Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE. Delivered directly to your door by express mail! Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $1000 #5038 SOLD Antique: Yes |
