Serial no. 111313, caliber .36. This has a 7.5? octagonal barrel with the bore having good rifling and scattered corrosion. All numbers match, including the wedge, and the mechanism functions well. About 40% of the cylinder scene is legible, all other factory markings are in fine condition. All of the steel surfaces have a dark gray/blue patina with some fine pitting between the nipples, the rest of the metal is generally smooth. The brass gripstraps have a pleasing ocher patina and the one piece walnut grip shows only minor wear at the butt with a rounded-over tiny chip missing at the left heel. Made in 1861, the consignor reports that this revolver came directly from an elderly gentleman who had run a trading post in the vicinity of Fort Wingate, New Mexico.

This is an antique revolver and transfers with no federal restrictions.
