Description: c1865 COLT Antique CIVIL WAR .31 Percussion M1849 POCKET Revolver FRONTIER WILD WEST/FRONTIER SIX-SHOOTER Here we present an antique Colt Model 1849 Pocket Revolver, made in 1865 in Hartford, Connecticut. The Model 1849 Pocket, the replacement for the Baby Dragoon, was the most widely produced of any Colt percussion pistol. Nearly 340,000 were manufactured during its 23-year production run that ended in 1873. Over 280,000 of these were produced by Colt’s factory at Hartford by the end of the Civil War in 1865. These were very popular and saw a lot of use on the battlefield, on the home front and in the West. These were some of the smallest, handiest pocket revolvers of the time. Though not a primary military arm during the American Civil War, these handguns were commonly privately purchased by soldiers for use on the battlefield. Whether legend or fact, it is interesting to note something commonly read about pocket revolvers of the day, that while they could be used for self-defense against the enemy, many soldiers kept them on their person to defend themselves against an unwanted amputation in the primitive field hospitals that were notorious, even in their day. The overall condition is good. Polished bright. The action is strong. The bore is patinated with visible rifling. The grip is solid, showing use. The numbers match throughout. This one has a period barrel mounted rear sight sometimes found on these—a neat and practical addition to these very useful and popular revolvers! Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 5 inches. Caliber: .31 Percussion 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 $1800 #250604 Antique: Yes Price: $1,800.00 Buy Now Pay with
