Description:
1906 COLT Model 1892 NEW ARMY & NAVY .38 Caliber Double Action REVOLVER C&R
First DA Swing Out Cylinder Used by the US Military
Here we present a C&R Colt Model 1892 New Army & Navy Double Action Revolver, made in 1906 by the Colt Manufacturing Company with a production run from 1892 through 1907 in Hartford, Connecticut. The M1892 Colt Army and Navy was the first general issue double action revolver with a swing out cylinder used by the U.S. military. In 1892 the gun was adopted by the Army in .38 Long Colt caliber, and the revolver was given the name of New Army and Navy. Initial experience with the gun caused officials to request some improvements. This would be an ongoing condition, resulting in Models 1892, 1894, 1896, 1901, and 1903 for the Army.
A Model 1892 revolver was recovered from the USS Maine after it exploded in Havana Harbor in 1898. It was presented to then-Assistant Secretary of the Navy Theodore Roosevelt, who would later become President of the United States. Roosevelt brandished this pistol to rally his Rough Riders during the famed charge up San Juan Hill on July 1, 1898.
The overall condition is fine. Original finish. The numbers match. The action is excellent. The bore is shiny bright and sharply rifled. The grips are in fine shape.
