Hideout/Backup CONCEAL/CARRY Handgun
Here Ancestry Guns presents an antique Harrington & Richardson Spur Trigger Pocket Revolver, made circa 1878-1883. These pocket-sized revolvers and many like them were made by various companies such that the price easily undercut better known and established companies like Colt. As a result, many of Colt’s similar lines were shut down for their inability to compete. During a time when many, if not most people carried a firearm, these affordable little revolves were small enough to conceal and carry, yet provide some level of protection or peace of mind, even when the town did not allow firearms within its limits.
There were quite literally dozens of companies making these at the end of the 19th century, curiously being “trade named” all sorts of things, for example: Defender, Blue Jacket, Red Jacket, Electric, Smoker and many more! They are typically rimfire and have the spur trigger, much like their progenitor the S&W No. 1 Revolver. Though they do not have the name recognition of Colt’s, Smith & Wesson and Remington, they still represent a period in American history and present an opportunity for collectors with relatively minimal investment.
The overall condition is fine. Original nickel is preserved. Case colored hammer. The action is excellent. The bore has a nice shimmer, spot of pitting, and serviceable rifling. Markings are sharp. Fine grips. Visible numbers match.
