Description

Miniature Cased Colt Model 1851 Navy Revolver by the United States Historical Society

This is a beautifully made copy of a Second Model 1851 Navy with a square-back trigger guard. It is just 6″ in overall length with a 3.5″ octagonal barrel, serial #111. The frame, hammer, and loading lever are case colored; the barrel and cylinder are blued; the grips are polished brass, and the one-piece walnut grip is piano-finished. The mechanism functions like the original, but of course this does not actually fire. The mahogany case has a couple of small blemishes, the revolver is like new. RR Auction COA.
