Description:
SPANISH Antique OVIEDO 1870 Pinfire 11mm Revolver
Used in the Spanish-American War!
Here we present an antique Spanish Model 1863 Single Action Army Pinfire Revolver, made circa 1870 in Oviedo, Spain. Only about 6,000 were produced. Oviedo was a city with a Spanish Government Arsenal. This model was manufactured exclusively for the Spanish Army, following closely the design of the French Model 1858 and following close on its heels. This revolver saw service with Spanish continental army until the late 1880s and with the Spanish colonial forces until the turn of the century. It is highly likely that when the Continental Army eschewed them that more were sent abroad to the colonies. Many revolvers of this type were captured during the Spanish American War in Cuba and the Philippines.
The right side of the frame is marked “OVIEDO 1870”. This revolver uses the pinfire cartridges that have a firing pin mounted to the outside of the case which is smashed into the primer by the hammer. This is a very scarce piece that would go well with a Trapdoor, Krag, or Colt Single Action Army that would have been on the American side of the Spanish American War!
The overall condition is good. The metal surfaces are dark with age. The markings are clear and eligible. The grips are in good shape. The bore is in good shape, dark with sharp rifling. The action on this revolver is strong.
