Description:
A VERY RARE, EARLY, & DESIRABLE WESSON & LEAVITT PERCUSSION REVOLVING RIFLE MADE BY THE MASS. ARMS CO. IN NICE UNTOUCHED CONDITION. MOST LIKELY LESS THAN 20 WERE MADE FROM THE LATE 1840'S TO EARLY 1850'S. SERIAL #193 WHICH WAS MADE & NUMBERED IN SERIES WITH THE ARMY MODEL REVOLVER AS THEY USED THE SAME FRAMES ON BOTH GUNS. THE GUN HAS NICE UNTOUCHED METAL & MARKINGS THROUGHOUT. MARKED "WESSON & LEAVITTS PATENT" ON THE LOCK. THE TOPSTRAP & HAMMER ARE ENGRAVED. THERE IS SOME LIGHT PEPPERING ON THE TOPSTRAP. THE TOP STRAP OPENS & CLOSES TIGHTLY. THE ENTIRE GUN HAS A NICE EVEN NATURAL PATINA THROUGHOUT IT. THE ACTION WORKS NICELY IN IT. THE BORE IS GOOD. IT HAS A 24 INCH BARREL ON IT. THE SHOULDER STOCK & STOCK HANDLE WERE MADE FROM ONE PIECE OF WOOD AND WERE NOT DETACHABLE AS YOU WOULD THINK. THEY ARE BOTH IN VERY NICE CONDITION WITH NO BREAKS OR CRACKS IN THEM. THIS IS A VERY RARE & EARLY REVOLVING RIFLE TO FIND ESPECIALLY IN ALL COMPLETE CONDITION. THIS IS THE ONLY ONE OF THESE I HAVE EVER HAD OR SEEN FOR SALE. IT IS FRESH OUT OF AN OLD ESTATE & WOULD MAKE A GREAT ADDITION TO ANY COLLECTION!
