Antique COLT 3-1/2 Inch ROUND BARREL Pocket Model CARTRIDGE .38 RF Revolver 1 of 6500; Scarce CARTRIDGE CONVERSION Model!
Description: Antique COLT 3-1/2 Inch ROUND BARREL Pocket Model CARTRIDGE .38 RF Revolver 1 of 6500; Scarce CARTRIDGE CONVERSION Model! Here we present an antique Colt Pocket Model Cartridge Revolver made circa 1873-1880 in Hartford, Connecticut. This revolver was originally a .31 caliber percussion 1849 Pocket Model with the frame manufactured in 1851. Reportedly 10,000 of these revolvers were manufactured c. 1873-1880 and sold into the 1880s. 6,500 of those were manufactured using converted percussion revolver parts and the rest were built using original cartridge components. It has standard markings and features and still sports the classic cylinder scene of the 1849 Pockets! One of the most aesthetically pleasing aspects of this pistol is its cylinder scene. Cylinder scenes during this period were common, especially for Colt, not only for their visual appeal, but because it made a revolver more difficult to forge. The scene on the 1849 Pocket is that of a stagecoach robbery. The focal point is the stagecoach drawn by four horses. A woman in a dress is seen framed in the doorway of the side of the coach. The driver is standing alongside wielding his pistol against multiple assailants as the horses rear and struggle against their harnesses. Several of the bandits lay dying on the ground, one tries to control the horses, two are running away and one is in the process of falling dead after being shot. Not a bad way to show interested buyers what a pistol like this would be good for. It did a fine job as a self-defense handgun for the average citizen in 19th Century America. The action functions, although the cylinder freewheels. Good bore for its age. The grip is solid with an expected amount of wear from handling. Numbers match. Legible markings. Wagon robbery cylinder scene is intact. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 3-1/2 inches. Caliber: .38 Rimfire 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 $1850 #227560 SOLD Antique: Yes |
