Modern Reproduction of the ICONIC COLT NAVY

Here Ancestry Guns presents an antique classified Colt Black Powder Series Model 1851 Navy Single Action Revolver, made circa 1971-1978 in Hartford, Connecticut. In the making of the original gun, the 1851 Navy was one of Colt’s most famous and successful lines, reaching a production total of 257,348 from 1850 to 1873 (right up to the time of SAA production) from both Hartford and London factories. From Hartford alone, 185,000 were made by the end of the American Civil War. Many of these saw service during the conflict on both sides. There were some military purchases and lots of private purchases by soldiers going off to war. In addition, the Model 1851 was carried by Confederate General Robert E. Lee and was a favorite of “Doc” Holliday and “Wild Bill” Hickok, who carried two of these most famously in his red sash.

The Colt Model 1851 Navy, first known as the “Ranger Model” and also known as the “Revolving Belt Pistol of Naval Caliber,” was designed between 1847 and 1850, manufactured from 1850 until 1873, and was the second most popular Colt percussion revolver after only the Model 1849 Pocket.
