Colt Model 1855 Root Type 3 Revolver Made in 1861, Excellent Specimen!
Description: Consignment item, one of many from a large collection of 1850s and 1860s percussion firearms. Please see my other listings for more items. Very nice Colt Model 1855 Root .28 caliber percussion revolver with 3 1/2" octagon barrel, serial number 28936, type 3, made 1861 at the start of the Civil War, blued finish, walnut grips, spur trigger, single action, 5-shot cylinder, 2-line Hartford address. This specimen has a high amount of original frame blue, excellent walnut grips retaining most of the original varnish and no cracks/splits/repairs, all numbers matching, barrel turned a soft patina. The best part is it functions perfectly - many Roots have the cylinder pin backing out or the cylinder not turning, but this one is tight with solid half-cock and full cock, indexing right on line each time, all original nipples in the cylinder, and never refinished or restored in any way. Very hard to find in this condition, this Colt Root will surely make a nice addition to any collection. TERMS: No international sales and no sales to Alaska or Hawaii. Sales to California and New York will only be shipped to an FFL dealer. All others require a valid driver's license or other proof of adult age and will ship directly to your residence or workplace. Buyer pays $35 for shipping and tracking by USPS Priority Mail. All major credit cards are accepted but incur a 4% convenience surcharge; payment by personal check, bank check or USPS money order. 3-day, non-firing inspection with buyer responsible for return shipping. Thanks for looking.
