GR-1025-6667, Colt Model 1851 Navy, .36 percussion. 6 shot. 7 ½ inch barrel. BLOWOUT
Current bid: $850.00
GR-1025-6667, Colt Model 1851 Navy, .36 percussion. 6 shot. 7 ½ inch barrel. Serial number 129,xxx matches on the barrel, frame, guard and cylinder pin. There is no number on the wedge and the cylinder does not match. The gun was made in 1862. The cylinder retains about 50% scene, overall mottled brown with scattered patches of shallow metal scaring mostly likely from the gun being stored in a holster and the holster rotting away. The wood to metal fit is fine, the backstrap has a lighted dotted decoration. The front portion of the barrel address has been filed away, this is typical of what Confederate soldiers often did to captured guns. The gun also shows evidence of hard and heavy use. All of this would be typical of a Confederate captured gun, there is no way to prove where this gun has been but it would be fascinating to know where and how it was used in the 1860s. The south hated the NY barrel address and would file them off, this was clearly filed off. If a cylinder blew or a gun became useless, a Northern Soldier threw it away. Confederate soldiers had no such luxury and collected any discarded weapon from the battlefield, turned them into the unit armory and had them put back into service. The bore is bright, rifling is strong with scattered fine spots and residue the length of the bore. The mechanics are crisp and tight.
Est. Retail Value: $1500
