U.S. Navy Colt Model 1851 Navy Cartridge Conversion Revolver

Manufactured between 1873-1880. Brass bead front and hammer notch rear sights, with the one-line New York address on the barrel, spring-loaded ejector on the right side. The frame is double stamped, with "COLTS/PATENT/U.S." covered with a 1871/1872 "Two July" patent marking, and the butt is stamped "U*S*N". The hammer and recoil shield are configured for center fire, with a smooth one-piece walnut grip. Barrel, frame and cylinder number 59829. Back strap and trigger guard number 62347. Provenance: The Phillip Otto Clark Collection

Rating definitionVery good as assembled, with 20% of the factory refurbished blue finish, showing a number of dings on and around the wedge and ejector, mild spotting overall, and pitting around the breech and muzzle. The frame shows 30% of the original case colors, with the remainder a mixed gray. Includes some mixed/force-matched components. Grip is very good as revarnished, with some dents and scuffs. Mechanically excellent.
