Engraved CIVIL WAR Antique BACON Removable Trigger Guard POCKET Revolver
.32 Caliber Rimfire Revolver by THOMAS BACON
Description: Engraved CIVIL WAR Antique BACON Removable Trigger Guard POCKET Revolver .32 Caliber Rimfire Revolver by THOMAS BACON Here we present an antique Bacon Manufacturing Company Removable Trigger Guard Pocket Revolver, made circa the early 1860s in Norwich, Connecticut. Thomas K. Bacon was the founder of the company and was also involved with the Manhattan Fire Arms Co. as the superintendent. He also had business dealings with Ethan Allen and Allen & Thurber. When Manhattan moved their operation away from Norwich, Bacon left the company to stay behind and work on his own firearms manufacturing company. Part of Bacon’s contract with Manhattan included a “no-compete” clause that he would have been in violation of if the heads of Manhattan had bothered to sign the agreement. Nevertheless, they still took him to court with no official judgement recorded. Bacon’s arms were popular on the commercial market and many made their way onto Civil War battlefields upon being privately purchased by soldiers. Here is a nicely engraved Thomas Bacon revolver to add to your Civil War collection! Brown finish throughout. The cylinder arbor has broken at the base. The bore is in good shape for its age. Lightly engraved frame. Both grips are very good with light handling wear and remain firmly seated. The trigger guard is numbered “146” while the cylinder, side plate, and frame are numbered “45”. Legible markings. The action (hammer/trigger) is strong but due to the broken arbor this cylinder does not revolve. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 4 inches. Caliber: .32 Rimfire Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE. Delivered directly to your door by express mail! Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $1500 #230152 SOLD Antique: Yes |
