About Us: WE BUY AND CONSIGN GUNS AND GUN COLLECTIONS! We will travel to pick up collections! I am always looking for good clean, old original Winchesters to buy, consign, or trade, especially Pre '64's model 70's and model 54's.
Description:
Here is a rare find! This is what I found
Only 800 Dragoon Model Wesson & Leavitt revolvers were manufactured by the Massachusetts Arms Company in 1850-1851 based on patents by Edwin Wesson and Daniel Leavitt until a patent infringement suit won by Colt halted production. Leavitt's patent was granted less than a year after Colt and well before Colt had become a successful arms manufacturer and related to the beveled face on these firearms which directs the flash away from the other chambers to help prevent chain fires. Daniel Wesson, continuing his brother's business after his death in 1849, of course later went on to form Colt's main competitor in the revolving firearms market with Horace Smith. This example is marked 207 and I can only one one SN on the back of the cylinder frame. It is also marked with "MASS. ARMS CO./CHICOPEE FALLS" on the top strap, "LEAVITTS PATENTS APRIL 29.1837" on the rear face of the cylinder, "WESSONS' PATENT AUG. 28. 1849" on the bevel gear, and "WESSON'S & LEAVITT"S PATENTS" on the lock plate. It has a brass blade front sight, a small notch rear sight, and a smooth grip. Trigger and hammer both in good working order. Cylinder does not rotate with cocking, it is freely moving by hand.
We will trade for silver and gold coins and bars.

All my guns (except layaway) come with a non-firing, 3 day unconditional return privilege, from the day UPS delivers to your dealer. Buyer pays shipping both ways if the gun comes back. Please make sure to make it to your FFL to inspect within the 3 days. We can hold until you know you can make to your dealer in your 3 day window.

I am a licensed FFL, and will include a copy of my FFL with the gun for your dealer’s records. I will ship to a C&R if the gun is eligible. I will ship to California, but you need to confirm the gun is legal where you are, California or other.
