Description:
Connecticut Arms and Manufacturing Co. - Hammond Patent SS "Bulldog" Pistol - Cal. 44 RF - 4" Bbl. - SN 5599 (mid 1880s).  Bore is near perfect with sharp rifling and only a couple of very minor spots.  Action is excellent with perfect mechanics, extraction, and ejection.  Metal is excellent overall  - barrel retains 90% blue with some light oxidation in spots - frame shows a general gray patina with darkened case colors.  Grips are excellent and undamaged with sharp checkering and 98% finish.  Although these "Bulldogs" were made for over 20 years, only about 8000 were produced.  They were a very popular "deringer" style pistol in the early West due to the .44 caliber and were favored by gamblers as a big bore pocket pistol.  This "Bulldog" is all original and unaltered and in EXCELLENT or better condition -  a very hard to find early single shot,  especially in high condition.
