Late Post-CIVIL WAR Antique Colt 1860 Army Revolver
Description:
Late Post-CIVIL WAR Antique Colt 1860 Army Revolver
With Battle of Campeche Mexican-American War Scene
Here we present an antique Colt Model 1860 Army Revolver, made in 1869 in Hartford, Connecticut. The Model 1860 was the single most used pistol of the American Civil War. Over 200,000 were made from 1860 to 1873, and 156,000 were made by the end of the war in 1865. The 1860 Army was Samuel Colt’s finest achievement to that point, having finally developed a large caliber revolver that weighed about 2 lbs. 10 oz. to the famous Dragoon’s 4 lbs. 4 oz., and was adopted en masse by the U.S. government with huge contracts. The revolver was well balanced in hand, but had a long enough barrel to be effective when utilized as a carbine with the attachable shoulder stock. This revolver represented unprecedented firepower from a handgun in the field at the time, and was especially suited to Cavalry. The Confederacy, lacking in manufacturing capabilities though they were, managed to produce limited numbers of copies, and battlefield pickups of the 1860 Army were highly coveted. The 1860 Army went on to serve the U.S. military even after the Civil War and into the Indian Wars, until production of Colt’s 1873 Single Action Army created new waves in the revolver market, and again achieved great success in the military and commercial markets.
The cylinder roll engraving on the 1860 Army features a scene from the Battle of Campeche executed by American engraver Waterman Ormsby. The engraving pays homage to Texas in their fight with the Mexican government for independence. During this particular battle, the Mexican Navy wielded two ironclad steamers, while the Texans were armed with a variety of wooden ships, led by Commodore Edwin Moore. The scene also appears on the cylinders of the Colt 1851 and 1861 Navy Revolvers.
This specimen is a civilian variant that was made at the tail-end of production. Many of this revolver’s peers may well have been converted to cartridge revolvers.
The overall condition is very good. The cylinder scene is still faintly visible in places. All serial numbers match, with the exception of the wedge, which is unnumbered. All markings are clear and legible. Grips are very nice. Bore is in very good condition. Action is functional, but the hand spring is weak and could use replacement.
Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.
Barrel is 8 inches in length.
Caliber: .44 percussion
The bore is in very good condition and the action is as described above.
Overall condition as seen in photos.
Own the revolver that accompanied those who went West after the Civil War.
