Description:
CIVIL WAR Antique STARR Model 1863 ARMY Single Action Revolver .44 Percussion
One of 23,000 Model 1863 Revolver Produced
Here we present an antique Starr Arms Co. Model 1863 Army Single Action Revolver, made circa 1864 in New York City with a production run between 1863 and 1865. Requiring all manners of firearms during the Civil War, the U.S. government commissioned the Starr Arms Company to produce a Single Action version of its Double Action revolver. Both versions were taken on by the North with roughly 47,454 total produced.
These saw the most use in the Western Campaign with three sub-variants of the base design, with those being the Double Action Navy of 1858 in .36 caliber, the Double Action Army of 1858 in .44 caliber, and the Single Action Army of 1863 in .44 caliber. Production numbers reached 3,000, 21,454, and 23,000 respectfully. Starr revolvers were one of the top handguns found on Civil War battlefields.
This gun was possibly brought home by a coming home soldier or sold on the surplus market by the U.S. government after the war. Various conversions were performed on old percussion revolvers as a matter of practicality, and taken all over the United States, including out West.
The overall condition is very good. Patina throughout. The action is excellent and crisp. The bore is in fine condition, shiny bright with sharp rifling. Grip is solid. Single letter inspection marks throughout. Numbers match.
