Antique Allen & Thurber 36 Cal Percussion Boot Pistol 3.5" Octagon to Rounnd Barrel

Description:
The Allen & Thurber percussion boot pistol is a .36 caliber antique handgun featuring a 3.5-inch barrel that transitions from octagonal to round. The frame and barrel are constructed of steel, and the pistol is fitted with smooth wood grips. This compact, single-shot percussion design represents the small defensive pistols produced by Allen & Thurber during the mid-19th century, often referred to as boot or pocket pistols due to their size and configuration.

This pistol is used and shows characteristics consistent with its age. The bore condition is described as good. The mechanical action does not always function correctly and may require attention to the trigger reset spring for proper operation. The serial number is marked T33 on the frame. The metal components retain a steel finish, and the wood grips show the smooth contour typical of the period’s construction. No additional mechanical or cosmetic details are provided beyond the noted functional issue.

Included with the pistol is only the firearm itself, with no accessories or additional components specified. The piece reflects original configuration details with its steel frame, percussion ignition system, and 3.5-inch octagon-to-round barrel profile. No box, tools, or documentation are listed as part of the sale.
