Late 1860s VERY RARE Antique JAMES WARNER .30 RF Cartridge POCKET Revolver
NICE & SCARCE Pocket Pistol; 1 of only 1,000 Made
Description: Late 1860s VERY RARE Antique JAMES WARNER .30 RF Cartridge POCKET Revolver NICE & SCARCE Pocket Pistol; 1 of only 1,000 Made Here we present an antique James Warner Patent Cartridge Pocket Revolver, one of only 1000 made circa the late 1860s, in Springfield, Massachusetts. James Warner was a prolific inventor and gun maker who was at one time or another engaged with the following gun makers: Springfield Arms Co., Massachusetts Arms Company, Edwin Wesson, Wesson Stevens & Miller, and Warner & Wesson. Production of this cartridge revolver was halted due to violation of the Rollin White patent. Earlier Warner percussion revolvers were also removed from production due to patent infringement suits. Because of these suits, Warner managed to distinguish himself from many other gun makers by being sued for patent infringement and losing twice, to Colt and to Smith & Wesson, respectively—once with his percussion design and once for this cartridge design. As would be expected, he had to stop production in each instance. The first occasion was with Warner’s preemptive manufacture of a revolving percussion rifle, since Colt’s patent was about to expire, when, in fact, Colt received a patent extension. He was forced to cease production and label his guns for S&W on the second occasion. The overall condition is nearing fine. Much of the original blue has been preserved on the cylinder and other low trafficked metal parts. Sharp markings. The bore I bright, but does contain a patch of light pitting or two. Solid grips. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 3 inches. Caliber: .30 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 $1800 #233149 SOLD Antique: Yes |
