Antique HOPKINS & ALLEN Top Break FOLDING HAMMER .38 Double Action REVOLVER
Late 19th Century Conceal and Carry w/PEARL GRIPS
Here we present an antique Hopkins & Allen Top Break Folding Hammer Double Action Revolver in .38 S&W, made in Norwich, Connecticut circa 1885 to 1898. Hopkins & Allen Manufacturing Company was a major manufacturer of rifles, shotguns, and revolvers between 1868 and 1915. After an initial investment of $2000, H & A began operations as a producer of firearms, machinery, tools, and hardware.
After the expiration of the Rollin White Patent in 1869, they began converting their percussion revolvers to accept cartridge ammunition. In addition, they started producing a line of spur-trigger cartridge revolvers in .22 and .32 calibers. From its humble beginnings, Hopkins and Allen had grown from a small shop with 30 employees to become a major producer of firearms and an employer of 600 workers. In a state known for firearm production, H & A ranked third only behind Colt and Winchester. Hopkins & Allen continued to manufacture a variety of revolvers and small arms until 1915.
The overall condition is very fine. Original nickel finish. The action is excellent in both double and single action. The bore is shiny bright with sharp rifling. The mother of pearl grips are solid and gorgeous. The numbers match. This little revolver is in astounding condition for age and the nickel with pearl really set it off.
