serial #6321, .31 cal, 4'' round barrel with a bright near excellent bore showing a little oxidation speckling nearer the muzzle and crisp rifling throughout. The barrel and cylinder of this second variation revolver retain about 60% original bright blue appearing stronger under ambient light with some thin light cleaning striations to mild oxidation staining and toning to gray-brown patina. The hash mark and wavy line decoration around the cylinder and the patent date remain crisp. The frame retains about 85-90% original silver finish that shows some lightly flaked areas toning to mild gunmetal gray and blending in rather nicely with the surrounding lightly tarnished silver. The topstrap maker markings are crisp and the hammer and loading lever show nice smoky case-hardening. The smooth walnut grips remain in near excellent condition retaining most of their original varnish with some scattered light dings and handling marks. The brass post front sight is intact and the action seems to function well mechanically. This is a very handsome example of these quality pocket revolvers that were quite popular in the 1860s. (13B11777-35) {ANTIQUE} (1000/1500)
