1065 - CIVIL WAR COLT, MODEL 1861 NAVY PISTOL.
This is a good condition gun with good markings and full grips. There is little scene left but the serial number is still present. The metal parts are original but the gun has been totally refinished and the action needs some work. This gun needs the action put into working order and the finish toned back. If you can do that, you'll have a $1200 - $1400.00 gun.

1063 - ANTIQUE GUN, COLT MODEL 1849 POCKEt REVOLVER CLASSIFIED AS A "WELLS FARGO' VARIATION WITHOUT RAMMER ASSEMBLY.
This is a fine little gun showing strong markings, edges and action. It retains traces of dull blue in protected areas on the barrel and some bright case colors on the frame. The cylinder scene is all there as is 90% of the original varnish. The gun has some small dings about the barrel but not the big ones that would detract from its overall look. It's really nice and with original finish and this condition at this price, well below what you might find elsewhere.

1060 - COLT, 2ND MODEL DRAGOON, MARTIALLY MARKED.
Although this gun has only the slightest trace of blue on the barrel and no other original finish, it is in excellent condition otherwise. All metal parts are nearly sharp as new with a near perfect cylinder scene, near mint grips with perfect cartouches and near perfect markings. They don't come much better and with a darker patina, this gun would have commanded a price in the 20's.

1055 - CIVIL WAR COLT, MODEL 1860 ARMY REVOLVER & ORIGINAL HOLSTER WITH SOLID IDENTIFICATION TO AN IOWA CAVALRYMAN.
This gun is in perfectly untouched condition as is its holster. Original to the last screw, this gun shows full scene, the slightest traces of color and cartouches, and little use. The holster is in similar condition. This was bought from an general antique dealer at the last Gettysburg Civil War show in June. It is ID'd through several notes and letters dating back to the 1950's as well as a 2008 notarized affidavit testifying that the original owner was John Stevenson, Brackett's Battalion of Minnesota Cavalry, later part of the 5th Iowa Cavalry. If you collect Iowa or Minnesota, call me. You will want this gun. It is wonderful for the price.

1047 - COLT 3RD MODEL DRAGOON, FULLY MARTIALLY MARKED.
This is a really nice, big 4-pounder with some fine qualities. It retails generous traces of original blue scattered about its barrel, most of it on the left barrel lug. It shows the early style lever latch and also most all of its original cylinder scene, rare on the martial. The case-colors are mottled on the frame and the grips are full showing visable cartouches. The action, markings, edges and action are all very fine. This is a great gun and these are getting about dried up in terms of availability, even at the high-end auction houses. I will try to get some more pictures up on this gun soon to highlight its fine cylinder.

1034 - CIVIL WAR COLT,MODEL 1860 FLUTED CYLINDER ARMY WITH FACTORY LETTER TO THE GOVERNOR OF OHIO, WILLIAM DENNISON.
Shipped in June of 1861 with 49 other guns, this very good condition Flute is one of the few that factory letter offering the owner a glimpse of its use during the Civil War. These guns were ordered by Dennison and issued to Volunteer Officers in the State of Ohio who unlike enlisted men, normally had to purchase all of their equipment. This gun is in good to very good condition and shows wear and use. Markings, edges and action are good. Colt Fluted Army Revolvers are among the most sought after of Civil War handguns. Any more, they are rarely offered for sale and command high premiums over the standard models.

1023 - CIVIL WAR REVOLVER. COLT, MODEL 1861 NAVY.
This is another un-touched gun that is very pleasing to the eye and priced right. The gun has generous traces of original lustrous blue and case colors in its protected areas. The entire balance of the gun is in an untouched, original brown patina. The cylinder shows most of its original light scene and the grips are nice and full with most of their varnish and a small chip to the right toe. Edges, action and markings are very fine. This is another fine gun. We seldom see guns like this and the previously listed '51 for sale any more. They just don't show up.

1008 - COLT, MODEL 1851 NAVY REVOLVER, FACTORY FACTORY ENGRAVED WITH FACTORY CARVED IVORY GRIPS, HISTORICALLY INSCRIBED TO CONFEDERATE COLONEL MICHAEL BULGER OF THE 47TH ALABAMA INFANTRY.
This Navy Revolver is one of the better items that we have been fortunate enough to enjoy, own and market. It is in fine condition. Sharp and crisp in every respect and worthy of an outstanding collection of Civil War Artifacts of the highest quality and historical significance.
HISTORY; Commissioned a Captain in Company A of the 47th Alabama Infantry in March 1862. His regiment's baptism of fire came at the battle of Cedar Mountain on August 9, 1862. While in command of the 47th during this clash, he received two severe wounds that necessitated a leave of absence to restore his health, and it was during this convalesce that he was elected to represent his district in the Alabama State Senate. He returned to his duties at the grade of Lieutenant Colonel, and was present with the regiment at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. The Confederate efforts to seize the high ground known as "Little Round Top" occurred July 2, 1863, and the elder Bulger did not lack courage during this desperate hour – the old man climbed atop a boulder and "waved his sword at the Federals while urging his Alabamians" onward. This presentation of gallantry came with a severe cost however. By standing tall on the boulder, he offered a grand target and eventually, a Union marksman fired a round that found its mark. Hit in the lung, Bulger withdrew down the hill to the safety of another boulder. There, amidst the ongoing battle, he sat himself down to await his fate, and with blood freely flowing from his mouth and nostrils, began to suffer the effects of his wound. He was a dying man. With the ultimate repulse of the Confederate forces, the wounded Bulger was left behind and was reported to have been killed while "fighting most nobly". Colonel James Clay Rice of the 44th New York Infantry soon appeared and the Confederate officer officially surrendered his sword. Colonel Rice personally instructed his men to transfer Bulger to the attention of a Federal surgeon. Later, Bulger let it be known "that the compassion shown by Rice saved his life." Conveyed to Johnson's Island near Sandusky, Ohio as a prisoner, his war was effectively over. He was exchanged in March 1864. During his tenure as a prisoner-of-war, he was promoted Colonel. The war concluded with him as a member of the Invalid Corps, and upon returning to his adoptive state of Alabama, he farmed and continued his involvement in politics.

963 - COLT, MODEL 1862 POCKET NAVY CONVERSION.
This is a very decent little gun showing 90% original nickle-plate on the frame and barrel, and 10 - 15% on the cylinder which shows all of its scene. This gun also shows traces of original gold wash on the cylinder rebate and on the straps. I believe this gun was originally a very special order that only shows vestiges of its former beauty. The markings, edges and action are all sharp, but it needs a hand-spring and trigger/bolt spring. The grips are original and full but most of their varnish has weathered off the grips. This is an easy fix on the springs, but I don't have the time nor inclination. I'll leave that to the buyer who can aquire this at a bargain.

947 - COLT, MODEL #2 SIDEHAMMER REVOLVER.
This gun is near mint retaining 98% untouched original bright, vivid blueing, most of its softening case-colors and nearly mint grips. There is one thin streak of missing blue across the cylinder where the gun must have laid on its side for a hundred years. Other than that, it is museum quality.

920 - SIMPLY OUTSTANDING COLT "ETCHED-PANEL" SINGLE ACTION ARMY REVOLVER.
This is simply the best "Etched-Panel" S/A I have seen for under $25,000.00. It is another item recently found at the Gettysburg Civil War Show last week, and thankfully they now allow items made up to 1898 or I would never have seen it. I was also able to trade into this gun with a good dealer-friend from NYC, so I can pass the savings on to its future owner. This great Single Action shows prox. 70% original blue and case-colors on the cylinder and frame, respectively and generous traces on its barrel. The ejector-rod housing shows most of its blue and the screws are near perfect showing lots of finish. The grips are near mint and most of the blue remains in the bore and chambers!!! It also has the best, deepest, 100% original etched panel that I have ever seen. It's in the 52XXX range and would be hard to duplicated at my price.

834 - DRAGOON SHOULDER STOCK FOR A 3RD MODEL DRAGOON, MARTIALLY MARKED.
I have only handled and seen one Dragoon stock better than this one and it was a civilian. This stock has excellent wood showing only a very few handling marks. The cartouches are perfect. The metal is in deep, brown patina with generous traces of military blue in protected areas. This would make a fantastic addition to a fine condition 4-screw Dragoon.

824 - CASED AND FACTORY ENGRAVED, IVORY GRIPPED, 1851 NAVY REVOLVER.
This is a good condition Navy, factory engraved with factory ivories. The gun is generally sharp with nice markings and even the screw heads are still unbuggered. It does show wear and was obviously carried but never abused. It is cased in a factory box with replaced key escutcheon and is possibly re-lined, but has been this way for some time and looks very good, not detracting in the least. All accessories are very good condition and of factory type to include a Colt's Patent marked Navy flask and mold accompanied by a nipple wrench, cap box, opened cartridge pack from D.C. Sage, lead balls and key. I don't believe you can find a similar set of this condition and originality any cheaper.

823 - COLT, FIRST MODEL NAVY REVOLVER.
I don't have to explain to any Colt collectors how rare this gun is, especially in this condition as all of these guns saw heavy use in the gold fields as well as on the early frontier and during the Civil War. Their survival rate is lower than the Walker Revolver. This one is very sharp and crisp with 90%+ scene and great edges and markings. The grips show 30 - 40% varnish. Call quick or it'll be gone.

804 - WONDERFULLY EXHIBITION ENGRAVED, COLT ROUND BARRELED, POCKET NAVY CONVERSION WITH FACTORY IVORY GRIPS AND ULTRA-RARE LONDON ADDRESS.
This gun, although showing only the slightest trace of finish on the back barrel lug, has the finest engraving I've ever seen on any conversion or any Colt with the exception of Youngs Exhibition and earliest offerings. I am certain that it was engraved by Cuno Helfricht, as there is an 1860 Army with the exact style of scrollwork pictured in Wilson's earliest Colt Engraving book. That gun is in the Helfricht family collection and was saved by the engraver as a sample of his work. The style on both these guns is a copy of Youngs best offerings. This gun is in light brown patina and unblemished with the exception of a few shallow dings on the cylinder. It is sharp and crisp and the grips are original with the left panel showing more age coloring than the right, probably from being displayed for a long period. If you collect engraved Colts, you would be hard-pressed to find a similar example. This is a very rare gun.

681 - 20TH CENTURY CASED, COLT 3RD MODEL DRAGOON WITH 8" BARREL AND HISTORICALLY IDENTIFIED.
Now here's something special. This is a fine condition 8" Dragoon that is just as sharp and crisp as during its period of use but with all its finish flaked or aged off. It retains most all of its cylinder scene and almost all its original varnish on the grips. This gun would retail for $13,000.00 - 15,000.00. It is cased in a 20th century, custom manufactured box that is inscribed on a plate on the lid stating that the gun was carried by William Bevery Caldwell during the War between the States. It was given to his grandson, David Keller Caldwell by his parents upon his graduation from Washington & Lee University in 1949. Well, my researcher checked this out and indeed, David did graduate from W&L on that date and became an author of books on sea life. He can be found on the net. His parent checked out as well, and were from prominent Kentucky families. Last but not least, we found William Beverly Caldwell, father of George Danford Caldwell and grandfather of David as a Major in the 2nd Kentucky Cavalry, CONFEDERATE. Now, I can't prove that the gun came in this box, but it is made up for an 8" Dragoon. I also can't prove the former ownership. I did track down the facts as best as possible. I have priced it at the value of the gun alone and the box and accessories certainly add to the value. If I would have gotten this directly from the auction through the family, it would be $20,000+. This is a great item priced right for someone that wants what is almost certainly a Confederate outfit. There is even a locket with a dag of who I presume is Caldwell and his lady as well as a womans pocket watch.

675 - COLT, MODEL 1861 NAVY/NAVY CONVERSION.
This is a very fine condition gun showing most of its original blue and case colors. It is beautifull and has military finish. Due to this finish, I expect that this gun would letter to the US Navy from its original configuration in the 6,XXX serial range. This gun is beautifull and once again, a greta bargain for someone.
