Description:
ITEM DESCRIPTION:
Original Item:  A Starr revolver (Starr DA) is a double-action revolver that was used in the western theater of the American Civil War until the U.S. Ordnance Department persuaded the Starr Arms Co. to create a single-action variant after discontinuation of the Colt.  The price paid by the U.S. government for the DA army revolver was $25 (equivalent to $475 in 2014 inflation dollars).
This .44 caliber, 6" barrel, serial number 16192.  Serial number is matched on the frame and cylinder.  Example is fully functional and in overall very good condition.  The wood grips are excellent with matched cartouche inspector stamps, fine tight action, minimal pitting, and have multiple clear markings.  This is one of the best we've ever seen.
