Description:
SOLD This is another antique pistol that saw rough handling in the Mexican Revolution. It is an original Remington six shot Navy .36 caliber black powder percussion revolver. Like nearly all of the arms brought into Mexico to fight the 1910 Revolution, this one likely spent years exposed to the elements and hardships of the era. The hammer cocks and holds very well but the cyclinder doesn't hold all the time. The pistol is functional but needs work and should not be fired. The outside has the dark patina and surface corrosion usually shown on guns from the Revolution. The holster has obviously been together with the pistol for most of their lives. It has deteriorated but could be cleaned up for mounting in a display with the gun. It is 'left handed', which means it was likely a military issue, since at the time this holster was made during the American Civil War then sword was considered the primary side arm and had to be carried on the left side so it could be drawn with the right arm. The revolver was a secondary weapon and was mounted on the right side and drawn with the left arm. The pistol could be cleaned and restored, but it shows the rigors of War and could be displayed just as it is.
