Description:
#4889 Colt 1849-6” One-Line NY address, 246XXX (1862), fine action, VG bore, having the typical darkness in the grooves and VG lands. The exterior has very crisp edges to the barrel flats and a smooth even light brown patina, not pitting, no serious bruises. It has a REALLY nice cylinder scene and fine grips. Purchased in the heigth of the Civil War, this Colt likely was carried in to that conflict as a secondary sidearm by either an officer or some wealthier high-born young man …but if such was the case, it also looks to have had little use and/or good care. (…Of course, it ALSO could have been bought by some elderly fat gutted banker in New York City who kept it in a dresser drawer at his mistresses house!) Whatever the history, it’s a very decent Colt 1849 Pocket Model. VG++ $1345
