Description:

ANTIQUE c1850 Allen & Thurber Bar Hammer PEPPERBOX

First American Double Action Revolving Pistol

Here we present an antique Allen & Thurber Bar Hammer Pepperbox pistol.  Ethan Allen was already a prolific inventor and successful businessman in the 1830s when he came up with this design. This percussion, six shot, double-action pocket pistol was a very popular pistol that was produced in Worcester, Massachusetts. It’s a .32 caliber pepperbox with a revolving screw off fluted barrel and has factory engravings in a floral motif executed on both sides of the frame. Made from 1830-1865, these pistols enjoyed even greater popularity than Sam Colt’s first pistol. The history that these pistols enjoyed over the years is astounding: the Seminole Wars, Gold Rush, Mexican War and American Civil War. These guns are true relics of American history.

The left side of the hammer is marked “ALLEN’S PATENT/1845”. The ALLEN & THURBER WORCESTER”.

The overall condition is good. The metal surfaces have a light gray patina. The markings are clear and legible. The engravings are clear. The walnut grips are in good condition. The bores are smooth and clear. The action on this pepperbox is excellent. Here is a very classy and well-designed early American revolver by Ethan Allen!

Barrel is 3-1/4 inches.
