HANDY Post-CIVIL WAR / WILD WEST Antique COLT M1849 Percussion .31 POCKET
1869 Manufactured FRONTIER SIX-SHOOTER Revolver
Description: HANDY Post-CIVIL WAR / WILD WEST Antique COLT M1849 Percussion .31 POCKET 1869 Manufactured FRONTIER SIX-SHOOTER Revolver Here we present an antique Colt Model 1849 Percussion Pocket Revolver, made in 1869 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 American 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 very good. Traces of original blue are present are present throughout in the low handled areas. Strong action. The bore has dimmed but retains much shimmer with serviceable rifling. Solid grip with most of its original varnish, contains average handling wear. Markings are legible. Numbers match.
