Description:
This six-shot .44 caliber percussion single action revolver was manufactured by the Rogers & Spencer Co. of Willow Dale, New York, and was part of a 1864 Ordnance Department contract for 5,000 revolvers. Most of these Rodges & Spencer revolvers were delivered after the conclusion of hostilities in April 1865 and were never issued. The top strap is marked "ROGERS & SPENCER /UTICA N-Y". The matching serial number is located on the bottom of the grip strap, the cylinder, the underside of the barrel, the loading lever, cylinder and the left side of the frame. Ordnance "B" sub-inspection marks are stamped on the barrel, frame, loading lever, cylinder, trigger guard, and grips. Cone front and frame notch rear sights, blue finish with casehardened hammer and loading lever. Fitted with smooth walnut grips with a sharp boxed "RPB" cartouche on the lower left side and each panel is numbered to the gun on the inside.
The revolver retains 45 to 50% of the bright original blue finish, showing scattered patches of smooth brown patina with some bright edge wear and handling marks. The grips are in good condition, showing normal handling marks and a few scattered minor dings and scratches. The cartouche on the left panel remains sharp. The markings are sharp. The action is excellent. This is a well above average conditioned Civil War Rodgers & Spencer revolver offered at a reasonable price. Please feel free to ask questions. I will consider trades and I also offer a layaway (please contact me for full details).
