Description:
ANTIQUE BLUNT & SYMS of New York PEPPERBOX Pistol
Engraved, Underhammer Ring Trigger Revolver
Here we present an antique Blunt & Syms Pepperbox Revolver. This medium frame, double-action, six-shot, under-hammer, percussion pepperbox was sold by the firm of Orison Blunt and John G. Syms in New York City, New York in the 1830-1850 period. Several thousand are estimated to have been made. Ethan Allen was a contemporary who was also in the business of making firearms, especially pepperboxes, but with a different design. Blunt & Syms pepperboxes feature a ring trigger and a hammer on the bottom of the firearm instead of on top, making it a bit more streamlined. The hammer also has a small shield mounted on it to protect the user’s hand from the small detonation of the percussion cap.
The overall condition is fair. The metal surfaces have a mottled patina. There are no visible markings. Bores are dark. The walnut grips are in good condition. The action on this pepperbox is rough, the hammer has trouble coming off the sear.

Barrel is 3-1/2 inches.
