CIVIL WAR Era SCARCE Antique LUCIUS W. POND Style .32 RF Pocket Revolver
Patent Infringement Revolver Sued by SMITH & WESSON
Description: CIVIL WAR Era SCARCE Antique LUCIUS W. POND Style .32 RF Pocket Revolver Patent Infringement Revolver Sued by SMITH & WESSON Here we present an antique Lucius W. Pond Style Spur Trigger Revolver, manufactured circa 1861-65. 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 3, 1855”. The final run of 4,486 were marked as the court demanded, with production ending in 1870. The Belt Revolver had several distinctive features. The most notable of them is the small trigger and no trigger guard. This was combined with a single action mechanism and a break open frame, allowing the shooter to load the cylinder. However, the hinge was located above the cylinder, rather than below as had become the norm. This allowed the cartridges to fall out of the cylinder, as it would be pointed downwards. The overall condition is good. The action functions but the trigger return string is weak and needs to be manually reset. Good bore for its age. Both grips have seen quite the amount of wear and tear, but still sit firmly against the frame. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 3-3/4 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 $1200 #230423 SOLD Antique: Yes |
