ALLEN & THURBER Antique 1837 BAR HAMMER Percussion Double Action PEPPERBOX
First American Double Action Revolving Pistol
Here we present an antique Allen & Thurber Bar Hammer Pepperbox Revolving pistol. This percussion, six shot, double-action pocket pistol was a very popular pistol that was produced in Worcester, Massachusetts in 1837. Ethan Allen was already a prolific inventor and successful businessman in the 1830s when he came up with this design. It’s a .34 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 overall condition is good. The action functions properly. The bores are all dark with a layer of dust. The frame lightly engraved. The barrel is dated “1837”. There are two sets of initials hand carved into the grips. The left grip showcases “WE” and the right reads “WR”. Here is a nice pepperbox that would be great on display or collected!
Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.
Barrel is 4-1/2 inches.
Caliber: .34 Percussion
