Product Description

CIVIL WAR Antique SAVAGE .36 Caliber NAVY Percussion SINGLE ACTION Revolver

Unique Early 1860s Two-Trigger Revolver

Here we present an antique Savage Revolving Fire Arms Navy Model Revolver, made circa 1862 in Middletown, Connecticut with a production run between 1961 and 1865. Only about 20,000 were ever produced, most of them for U.S. government contracts for both the Army and the Navy. Ironically, about 800 were purchased and delivered to the Navy, while about 11,000 were delivered to cavalry units in the militias and the Army. The rest of the production was sold commercially and smuggled to the Confederacy when further U.S. government contracts were not forthcoming. Known Confederate Cavalry units to have used these were: the 7th, 34th & 35th Virginia, 11th Texas and 7th Missouri Cavalries. Known Northern units were the 5th Kansas, 7th New York, 1st & 2nd Wisconsin.

This was one of the most unique revolvers of the American Civil War, both in function and in form. Some in the field consider these to be “ugly” guns, and you may commonly see them referred to as the “Ugly Duckling”. Regardless, the thoughtfulness of design made this a feature packed revolver that gave it a good shot at government contracts, in spite of it being a bit more expensive.

The overall condition is good. Original patina. Strong action (hammer/trigger), the cylinder indexes well but does not lock-up. Good bore, dim with good rifling for age and use. Both grips are in good shape with expected wear. The right grip is hand carved with “G.R.B.”

Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.

Barrel is 7 1/8 inches.

Caliber: .36 Percussion
