Officially manufactured from 1859 to 1862 with total quantity estimated at over 1000 this example has the slow drop Smith & Wesson style grip with a straight top strap. A rugged and reliable Civil War era revolver that saw production suspended with the Rollin White lawsuit for patent infringement for bored through cylinders. Available in three different barrel lengths of 3,4 or 5 inches. This example remains in fine antique condition with the barrel, frame and cylinder showing about 20-25% of the original blue in protected areas with the balance a pewter gray. The grips are numbered to the gun and remain in excellent condition. The barrel and frame markings are very fine. All numbered parts match correctly. The action functions correctly with proper indexing holding at half and full cock and releasing with a crisp trigger pull. A fine example of the medium long barrel 32 Sidehammer. Antique
