Extraordinary Connecticut Arms & Manufacturing Co. Hammond Bulldog Single Shot Pistol with Rare Original Box and Ammunition

The Bulldog was manufactured from 1866 to the 1880s and uses a rotating breechblock that interlocks with the hammer at the time of discharge. It has blade and notch sights, "CONNECTICUT ARMS & MANF'G Co NAUBUC CONN." on the barrel, "2" on the breech face, "PATENTED OCT. 25. 1864" on the breechblock, "5" on the left side of the back strap, and the matching serial number on the left side at the toe and inside of the left grip panel at the top. A dot pattern box with a cartridge block containing six cartridges is included. Includes the original box.

ConditionExcellent plus. The pistol is near new overall aside from some insignificant storage type marks. Mechanically excellent. The rare original box is very good with mild storage type wear and the cartridge block loose. This is easily one of the finest, if not the finest, Hammond Bulldogs extant.
