Description:
 Allen and Wheelock made these side-hammer pistols in limited quantities between 1858 and 1861, with fewer than 750 of each variation made.
This one is the NAVY .36 caliber with a 7 1/2-inch barrel.  The metal is a smooth  gray on the frame, but with original blue on the barrel.  All matching serial number 438 throughout ...  
The cylinder scene of animals in a forest is completely visible, so there is very little wear to the metal.   The front sight is in place and the action is good.   The loading-rammer assembly, with its characteristic catch on the rear of the trigger guard functions fine. The nipples and  the grips are very good with most of the original finish.... These are nice pistols with a hint of that overly-clever Victorian age engineering that we love.    A classic Allen & Wheelock in tight solid condition made in the middle of the Civil War.  100% original,  100% complete,  mechanically perfect.
