BELGIAN Antique LEFAUCHEUX Pinfire M1854 Revolver Like Those Purchased by the South During the American Civil War
Description:
BELGIAN Antique LEFAUCHEUX Pinfire M1854 Revolver
Like Those Purchased by the South During the American Civil War
Here we present an antique Belgian Lefaucheaux Single Action Pinfire Revolver in 12mm, manufactured circa the mid-19th Century in Liege, Belgium. This one is considered the Cavalry Model due to the finger rest coming down from the trigger guard. This large bore, single action revolver was quite a favorite with soldiers. It was quite superior in many ways to contemporaneous American designs, most of which were still using the percussion firing system, of which Colt, Remington and Starr were the largest contractors. The biggest exception to that was Smith & Wesson’s No. 2 “Old Army” Revolver, but that was chambered for a relatively small .32 Rimfire metallic cartridge. The Lefaucheux’s 12mm cartridge was stout and in the range of .45 caliber.
A little more history on the Lefauchuexs: In 1835, a notable gun maker and inventor patented one of the first self-contained firearms cartridges, which he had designed back in 1828. This very early design included a case with ball, powder and primer, but what made it different from what was to come later in cartridge development was the “firing pin” that projected out of the side of the case. It was this pin that was struck and detonated the primer inside. His son, Eugene, would build on Casimir’s invention, designing a pistol to take advantage of it. The hammer would be flat and smash down on the side of the cylinder, from which the pin of the cartridge would project. This revolver and pistol design would become prolific, especially in Europe throughout the 19th Century, being adopted by militaries, used by civilians and police, and even being sold for use during the American Civil War.
This revolver holds 6 shots of 12mm Pinfire. The left side of the frame is marked “E. LEFAUCHAUX/BREVETTE”.
The overall condition is good. About 10% of the original blue finish remains on the octagonal portion of the barrel and a gray patina may be seen throughout. The markings are clear. The grips show use and remain in good condition. The bore is in good condition with strong rifling. The action remains strong. The ejector rod is absent.
Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.
Barrel is 6-3/8 inches.
Caliber: 12mm Pinfire
Overall condition as seen in photos.
