Description:
Very nice Colt Model 1851 navy percussion revolver.serial #97395, .36 cal, 7 1/2'' octagon barrel with a bright , excellent bore The barrel itself shows perhaps 45-50% original blue, the balance flaked to a brown patina with the expected light dings and handling marks, conical brass front sight and Hartford Ct.  address. The cylinder is a pewter gunmetal gray with the naval engagement scene remains vivid . The loading lever and frame are a pleasing mottled pewter, gray and silvery case-hardened patina. , the hammer being the same patina.  The triggerguard retains perhaps 85-90% original silver plate, toning to ochre in the grasping area of the frontstrap, the backstrap retaining perhaps 92% strong original silver plate, toning along the sharp edges. The smooth walnut one piece grip rates very fine as lightly cleaned with a bit of added finish many years ago, but retaining light dings and handling marks beneath the finish. Also has 3 "kill" notches on left side.It's itting is extremely well; it is ink pen numbered to the gun on its interior. All of the numbers are matching including the wedge and the gun times perfectly and seems to lock up well. A very respectable early 1851 Navy revolver that remains in very fine condition, appearing to have seen very little use and was well cared for with a much nicer than normally-encountered bore. Buyer  pays $20.00 shipping to lower 48 states.  I accept USPS Money Orders or Bank Cashier's Check.
