U.S. Civil War Martially Inspected Savage Revolving Firearms Company Navy Model Percussion Revolver with Holster

Of the approximately 20,000 Savage Navy revolvers manufactured between 1861-1865, the Ordnance Department reportedly purchased 11,984 during the Civil War. Features a heart shaped trigger guard with round cocking lever, off-set hammer, six-shot gas-sealing cylinder, octagon barrel and hinged loading lever. Single letter ordnance sub-inspection marks on various components including the bottom flats of both grip panels. Serial number "12543" marked on the right of the grip frame, underneath the barrel, on the back of the cylinder, and faintly handwritten underneath both grip panels. Boxed script "BH" (Benjamin Hannis) inspection cartouche stamped on the left grip panel. Includes a reproduction City Marshal badge and an unmarked period brown leather holster.

ConditionVery good plus, retains strong traces of original blue finish with smooth brown and gray patina on the balance, a few small patches of light pitting, and visible markings in the metal. The grips are fine, with numerous scattered scratches and handling marks, a few minor chips on the bottom edge of the left panel, and a mostly defined crisp cartouche. Mechanically excellent.
