Description

8/28/25 - Introduced in 1862 as the "Police Pocket Model of 1862 of Navy Caliber (.36)", this 5 shot .36 caliber percussion revolver was often purchased by serving Officers as a reserve handgun carried on the inside of their tunics. This one is mostly matching, except for the barrel wedge (un-numbered) and the loading gate (this is mismatched, but it should be). The serial number indicates production in 1861, according to Colt firearms records, even though this is a model 1862, as production started in 1861. The revolver made right at the beginning of the Civil War, and most likely was used during the conflict. The top of the barrel still has the original Colt markings clearly ADDRESS COL. SAML COLT NEW-YORK U.S. AMERICA. This one is fully functional and in fair condition overall. The cylinder scene has roughly 25% visibility. There is light pin-pricking and brown "attic patina" throughout. Some small dings in the metal here and there. Fitted with nice wood grips -some blemishes on the left side. The bore has good rifling, but there is some surface oxidation and light rust throughout. No FFL required. The barrel wedge fits a little loose.
