Description:
Here is a great example of a Starr 1858 Army double action revolver in .44 cal US marked on the grip. A Starr revolver (Starr DA) is a double-action revolver which 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 company eventually complied, and the Union acquired 25,000 of the single-action revolvers for $12 each (equivalent to $249 in 2019). However, the price paid by the government for the DA army revolver was $25.[4] The State of Ohio purchased 500 of the .36 Caliber Navy version for $20 each.[5] The Starr DA .44 cylinder holds in each chamber 33 grains (2.1 g) of powder, the bullet weighs 138 grains (8.9 g) 1858 Double Action .44 Caliber Percussion Army Revolver (produced 1862-1863) [~23000 produced] In total, 47,454 Starr revolvers were manufactured making it the third most issued of civil war era revolvers (6,352 Starr DA Navy and Army revolvers were purchased on the open market)
