Desirable Confederate "JS/Anchor" Marked London Armoury Co. Kerr Patent Percussion Revolver

This revolver has the "JS/anchor" marking on the front of the grip below the lower tang known to be marked on revolvers exported for the Confederacy. The London Armory Company contracted with Confederates Major Caleb Huse and Captain James D. Bulloch. While around thousands of revolvers and rifles were purchased, it is not known how many actually succeeded in getting through the Union blockade and into the hands of Confederate soldiers. Those that did were well regarded by the men who carried them.

ConditionPoor with dark patina, moderate oxidation/pitting, chip absent from the grip, mainspring absent, and general heavy wear.
