Description:
CIVIL WAR Antique COLT Model 1851 NAVY Revolver
Made During the Civil War in 1859
Here we present an antique Colt 1851 Navy Revolver, made in 1859 in Hartford, Connecticut. The 1851 Navy was one of Colt’s most famous and successful lines, reaching a production total of 257,348 from 1850 to 1873 (right up to the time of SAA production) from both Hartford and London factories. From Hartford alone, 185,000 were made by the end of the American Civil War. Many of these saw service during the conflict on both sides. There were some military purchases and lots of private purchases by soldiers going off to war. In addition, the Model 1851 was a favorite of “Wild Bill” Hickok, who carried two of these most famously in his red sash.
The top of the barrel is marked “ADDRESS SAM COLT HARTFORD, CT”. Scribed into the bottom of the grip frame is “TY US HH”.
The overall condition is fair. The metal surfaces are dark with age and show much hard use. The markings are legible. Number match with the exception of the loading lever. Hammer is an engraved replacement from another revolver. The grips are weathered but solid. The bore is dark with good rifling. The action on this revolver is excellent. Here is an example of a pre-Civil War Colt 1851 Navy with lots of character!
