ANTIQUE IVER JOHNSON ARMS & CYCLE WORKS BLACK POWDER CARTRIDGE
AMERICAN BULLDOG SECOND MODEL REVOLVER
Description: SALE PENDING WESLEY H-THIS IVER JOHNSON ARMS & CYCLE WORKS REVOLVER IS THE AMERICAN BULLDOG SECOND EDITION MODEL. IT IS 38 CALIBER CENTERFIRE WITH A SERIAL #47 ON THE FRAME. ASSUMING THEY STARTED AT #1 THIS ONE MUST HAVE BEEN MADE IN 1855. SOLD AS A DECORATOR ONLY AS THESE REVOLVERS WERE BUILT IN THE BLACK POWDER AMMO ERA SO THE STEEL USED MAY NOT BE UP TO MODERN FULL POWER LOADS. IT FUNCTIONS BEAUTIFULLY WITH A SMOOTH DOUBLE ACTION ONLY TRIGGER PULL. THE BARREL HAS GREAT RIFLING WITH THE ORIGINAL MACHINING CHATTER MARKS STILL VISIBLE IN THE LANDS. THE NICKEL OR CHROME LOOKS ORIGINAL TO ME AND IS GOOD ON THE GUN SAVE ON THE TRIGGER GUARD WHICH IS BARE METAL (REPLACEMENT MAYBE?). I THOUGHT THE LEFT GRIP WAS A REPLACEMENT BUT IT LOOKS ORIGINAL INSIDE AND THE BOTTOMS MATCH ON BOTH GRIPS. THE CHAMBERS HAVE SOME SCATTERED LIGHT SPECKLING. THE ONLY PROBLEM IT HAS IS A CYLINDER PIN LATCH THAT ISN'T SPRING LOADED AGAINST THE PIN. I DON'T KNOW IF THAT IS ORIGINAL DESIGN OR NOT. PROOF OF 21 YEARS OF AGE OR MILITARY ID REQUIRED FOR PURCHASE. SHIPPING IS $8.35 DIRECT TO YOU SOLD Antique: Yes Manufacturer: IVER JOHNSON ARMS & CYLCE WORKS Model: AMERICAN BULLDOG SECOND MODEL Serial Number: 47 Caliber Info: 38 CENTER FIRE BLACK POWDER Chambers: 5 Condition: GOOD Metal Condition: GOOD Wood Condition: GOOD Bore Condition: VERY GOOD Barrel Type: 2.5" OCTAGONAL Action: DOUBLE ACTION ONLY Finish: NICKEL Sights: IRON FRONT Manufacture Date: 1855 |
