Description:
Original Civil War Era S&W Moore's Patent Firearms Single Action Belt Revolver in excellent Plus condition.
Original finish, not import marked, all matching, no rust or pitting on metal, no cracks on grips, great bore.
Silver plated frame and grip straps, with the standard broad scroll engraving on the frame, star burst on the trigger guard and geometric line engraving on the backstrap and butt. Post front sight and hammer notch rear sight. Fitted with a square butt varnished grip.
About 7,000 of these revolvers were produced by Moore's Patent Firearms Co. in Brooklyn from 1863 until 1865 these were the first commercial revolvers in the US that used swing-out cylinder mechanism. However, they had to turn all of revolvers over to Smith & Wesson after S&W won a patent infringement lawsuit against Moore's. Afterwards, S&W sold them on the open market. These revolvers were very popular with New Yorkers who were heading off to the Civil War.
Have seen just a few in this kind of condition in last 10 year for sale due to limited production and heavy use during and after the Cuvil war. One like that ( maybe couple % better) brought $4500 on Julia around 6 years ago.
3-4 months Layaway is fine. For layaway payments please use only personal checks or Zelle as they are much easier to keep track of. If either of those options don't work for you, we can try to work out another option for payments. Please don't send payments for layway plans by anything other than personal checks or Zelle without my approval.
Zelle, Bank checks and money orders.
I also accept personal checks, but due to the POLICY OF MY BANK it takes 7 business days from the day of the deposit for them to clear.
I am not a dealer and can't take CC.
