SCARCE 1860’s Antique LUCIUS W. POND Belt Revolver
Description: SCARCE 1860’s Antique LUCIUS W. POND Belt Revolver Patent Infringement Revolver Sued by S&W Here we present an antique Brass Frame Lucius W. Pond Belt Revolver, manufactured circa 1864 in Worcester, Massachusetts. This Civil War era single action revolver was the subject of a patent infringement lawsuit in 1862, by Pond, of the Rollin White Patent from 1855, which was owned by Smith and Wesson. The court ruled in favor of Smith and Wesson. However, Pond, along with Bacon, Moore, and Warner (who were also found infringing on the patent) were able to continue producing the Belt Revolver on the grounds that they would be marked “Manuf’d for Smith & Wesson Pat’d April 5, 1855”. The final run of 4,486 were marked as the court demanded, with production ending in 1870. The top of the barrel is marked “L.W. POND WORCESTER MASS. PATD SEPT.8. 1863.”. The left side of the barrel is marked “PAT’D NOV.8.1864”. The overall condition is good. The metal surfaces have a mixed patina. The markings are clear and legible. The rosewood grips are in good shape. The bore is good with strong rifling. The action on this revolver is strong. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 5 inches. Caliber: .32 Rimfire Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE. Delivered directly to your door by express mail! Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $545 #7070 SOLD Antique: Yes |
