Description:
Colt Model 1855 Sidehammer Pocket Revolver 16-99
Colt Model Root 1855 Sidehammer Reolver, #6, 3-1/2” Bbl, very good/fine condition barrel and frame have 30-40% finish, the grips have one chip, otherwise very attractive, mechanical fine, 1855 Sidehammer Pocket Revolver and “Charter Oak” Grips. (16-99) $1,100.00
Model 1855 Sidehammer Pocket Revolver. Most commonly known among collectors as the “Root Model” after Elisha K. Root, the noted Colt designer (although Samuel Colt himself actually was the inventor of this model). Entered into production in 1855 and discontinued c. 1870. Made in two distinct serial sequences, with the total quantity approximately 40,000. The model was Colt’s only percussion handgun build on the solid frame principle in contrast to the firm’s standard design of barrel and cylinder which are readily removable from the frame. Other features permitting the quick identification of Model 1855 pistols are the hammer mounted on the right side of the frame, the spur trigger, the cylinder pin’s entry into the frame from the rear, and the “wraparound grip” secured to the backstrap (no trigger guard strap is present).
