Manufactured during the Civil War. Many of the No. 2s in this range were used during the Civil War and saw hard use, but this example is extremely fine. The rib has the one-line address, the cylinder has the patent date marking, matching assembly numbers are on the grip frame, cylinder and barrel and the right grip panel is numbered to the gun.

Extremely fine. The revolver retains 90% original bright blue finish with the balance thinning to a brown. The grips are also excellent showing a few nicks along the high edge, some minor handling marks and retaining most of the varnish. Mechanically excellent. A truly exceptional Civil War No. 2 Army, nearly impossible to upgrade!
