Colt Pocket Model Revolver

The Colt 1849 Pocket Model Revolver. Revolver is mechanically strong and indexes well. Grips are of one-piece, varnished walnut, strong and tight, and retain most of the original varnish and bears minimal shrinkage or blemishes. Grip strap, backstrap and oval trigger guard are brass with 30% of its original silver plate. Specimen features the desirable 6” long barrel matched to a .31 caliber, five-shot, unrebated cylinder. Has strong remnants of the ‘stagecoach holdup’ scene. Wedge bears identical patina and is unmarked, all visible serial numbers match with exception of the frame which has 31,820 and has undoubtedly been with the gun since the war.    A two line “ADDRESS SAML COLT / NEW YORK CITY” the top of the barrel. The standard “COLTS / PATENT” is stamped on the left side of the frame. Called the successor to the Baby Dragoon, the Model 1849 Pocket was a small version of the Model 1851 Navy revolver and proved ever popular through its end of production in 1873. Serial number 39,430.   This example dates to 1850. Very nice example overall.
