Description:

This is one of around 10,000 revolvers of this type built using a mix of converted on-hand parts from the Model 1849 Pocket, 1862 Police, and Pocket Navy revolvers along with newly manufactured components starting around 1873. These handy revolvers were still being shipped by the factory in the 1880s. Non-matching numbered slightly oversized replacement wedge screw. Matching full or partial serial numbers are on the barrel, frame, trigger guard, back strap, cylinder, and arbor pin.

Rating Definition:

Excellent, retaining 95% original nickel plating. All of the cylinder scene remains. 60% original case colors remain on the hammer. The grip is very fine with a notch near the bottom (left side), minor dings and scratches and retaining most of the original varnish. Mechanically excellent.
