Description

3/28/24 - This is a Colt Pocket Navy Model Cartridge Conversion Revolver in .38 Rimfire, made circa 1873-75 in Hartford, Connecticut. There were about 10,000 of these made using existing percussion revolvers or parts and manufacturing new components to accept cartridges. The factory conversion of Colt’s percussion line coincided with the expiration of the S&W owned Rollin White Patent, from which Smith & Wesson benefitted greatly as they dominated the market for cartridge revolvers for over a decade. This one is the same size as the 1849 pocket and was probably partially assembled from Model 1849 parts. It is all matching and has a really early "95" serial number. There is some flaking in the finish along the barrel, but most of the original case-hardening is still intact. Fitted with great wood grips. Very nice bore for its age. Visible stage coach robbery scene on the cylinder.
