RARE LONDON ADDRESS COLT Model 1849 POCKET .31 Caliber Revolver ANTIQUE UK
Made in 1858 for the UK & European Market
Here we present an antique Colt Model 1849 Pocket Revolver, made in 1858 in Hartford, Connecticut. The Model 1849 Pocket, the replacement for the Baby Dragoon, was the most widely produced of any Colt percussion pistol. Nearly 340,000 were manufactured during its 23-year production run that ended in 1873. Over 280,000 of these were produced by Colt’s factory at Hartford by the end of the American Civil War in 1865. These were very popular and saw a lot of use on the battlefield, on the home front and in the West. These were some of the smallest, handiest pocket revolvers of the time.
This piece falls into the proper serial range for these rare London addressed revolvers. Two line barrel address. It also has the iron grip frame.
The overall condition is very good. Bright, smooth surfaces. Great stage coach holdup cylinder scene. Excellent action. The bore is in good shape with strong rifling. Sharp markings throughout. Good grip. Numbers match. A rarity to fill the London address niche!
