SOUTH CAROLINA CONFEDERATE Antique PALMETTO ARMORY M1842 Pistol Civil War
VERY SCARCE South Carolina Marked Militia Pistol
Description: SOUTH CAROLINA CONFEDERATE Antique PALMETTO ARMORY M1842 Pistol Civil War VERY SCARCE South Carolina Marked Militia Pistol Here we present an antique Palmetto Armory Model 1842 Pistol manufactured circa 1852-53 in Columbia, South Carolina for the South Carolina Militia. It is believed that William Glaze did not actually manufacture these pistols but instead had them assembled and finished using parts from Northern contractors who manufactured Model 1842 pistols on contract with the U.S. Government. Glaze's partner, Benjamin Flagg, was formerly the superintendent of Asa Waters factory in Massachusetts. Waters had formerly manufactured the Model 1836 flintlock pistols and transitional style early percussion pistols upon which these percussion pistols are based. These pistols are all assumed to have seen hard Confederate use in the Civil War and many were destroyed. The M1842 features sturdy construction with lots of brass for support. This was important during a time when one would expend their shots and still have a fight on their hands. Striking your opponent with the pommel of your gun was quite effective. The ramrod is captive, so that it would not be lost in the heat of battle on top of a horse. This example is marked "PALMETTO ARMORY" in an arch over a Palmetto palm tree, and the typical "S*C" clearly marked on the center of the lock, "COLUMBIA/S.C. 1852" on the tail of the lock, “1852” on the tang, a very clear "V" and “P” over a palmetto on the upper left side of the barrel at the breech, and "Wm. GLAZE & CO." on the left barrel flat. The overall condition is good. Weathered appearance. The action is fully functional. The bore is smooth and dark. The stock has repairs at both the front and rear of the lock as well as above the pommel cap on the right side. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 8-1/2 inches. Caliber: .54 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 $3600 #247376 SOLD Antique: Yes |
