SCARCE Civil War Antique JM Cooper Pocket Revolver
Early Double Action 1849-like Percussion Revolver
Here we present an antique J.M. Cooper Double Action Pocket Revolver, made circa 1864 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. During a time of rapid innovation in firearms technology and an insatiable market due to rapid expansion and the American Civil War, dozens of makers seized their opportunity to put their ideas on the market. The J.M. Cooper Double Action Revolver took the concept of the Colt 1849 Pocket Model and improved it by giving it a double action firing mechanism. Only about 15,000 of these Pocket Models were made from the 1850s to 1869, making these quite scarce. Though there are no known military contracts, they made their way onto Civil War battlefields when soldiers purchased them privately for that purpose.
This specimen is in overall very good condition. The patina is a smoky gray with traces of original blue finish. All markings are clear and legible. The grips show wear, but are in very good condition as well. All serial numbers match. The bore is strong. The action is excellent. Here is a fantastic Civil War pocket revolver!
Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.
Barrel is 4 inches in length.
Caliber: .31 percussion
