Included in this lot is a Black Powder Signature Series Colt Model 1849 Pocket Revolver with 4” octagon barrel chambered in .32 caliber. A superb example six shot revolver that found favor with lawmen and outlaws alike who carried a small back-up revolver. It also found immediate acceptance by ladies of the evening, gamblers, well-heeled gentlemen, Civil War officers and enlisted men as personal weapons. Many of these also saw service in the gold fields of California. The Model 1849 was one of Colt’s most popular designs that was large enough for aimed fire, yet small enough to conceal in a waistband or unobtrusive holster. Matching serial numbers on the frame, trigger guard, barrel, wedge, rammer and cylinder. The barrel is correctly marked in the two-line style “ADDRESS COL. SAM COLT over NEW-YORK CITY.” along with “COLT’S PATENT” on the left side of the frame. Nice overall mint blue on the barrel and cylinder with exceptional case colored frame, walnut grips, silver plated back strap and trigger guard. The cylinder shows a beautiful carriage scene. Serial Number: 340450. Black powder firearms do not require a FFL Transfer or NICS Background Check.
