As an early production, single-action 1st Model chambered in proprietary .38, it brings the innovative Merwin-Hulbert hallmark of a twist-open barrel and selective extraction—an advanced feature for its era. With its five-shot cylinder, open-top frame, and durable nickel plating, this revolver reflects 19th-century American ingenuity born from Hopkins & Allen’s renowned craftsmanship. What sets this piece apart is its pedigree: among the first Pocket Models ever made, with a serial number placing it in the formative years of the design. Collectors and enthusiasts will appreciate the sleek saw-handle grips, self-extracting barrel system, and venerable bore-condition potential. Whether displayed as a testament to early revolver technology or carried as a uniquely charming vintage piece, this Merwin Hulbert pocket revolver offers a rare combination of style, history, and mechanical sophistication.   Price: $1,899.00 Antique: Yes Handgun Caliber: .38
