Description:

Manufactured from 1868 to 1875 this is very nice example of a Model 1 1/2, 2nd Issue revolver. The top of the barrel rib has the one line address/patent dates (1855, 1859 and 1865) marking. It has a five shot fluted cylinder, casehardened trigger, hammer and ejector rod and nicely figured bird head rosewood grips. The right grip panel is numbered to another gun.

Rating Definition:

Excellent. The revolver retains 97% original bright blue finish showing some thinning to a gray. Strong original case colors remain on the hammer, ejector rod and trigger. The grips are also excellent with most of the varnish remaining and a few minor handling marks. Mechanically excellent.
