872 - CIVIL WAR ERA, ENGLISH ADAMS PATENT REVOLVER MANUFACTURED BY THE LONDON ARMORY COMPANY.
This gun was probably manufactured prior to the Civil War but walked into the Richmond Virginia gun show a few weeks ago and had been in the same family for at least 80 years. I have no doubt it saw Civil War use. It shows about 80% aging blue on the barrel and frame and about 40% of the same finish on the barrel. The grips are finely checkered and in great shape. For those unaware, this is actually a very rare configuration. It is a large bore gun (prox. 40 caliber) on a smaller-than-average frame, something an officer and gentleman of the South would have been proud to carry.

557 - MANHATTAN NAVY REVOLVER WITH FACTORY PEARL GRIPS, FACTORY ENGRAVED AND HISTORICALLY INSCRIBED TO CAPTAIN ANTHONY BOWEN OF THE 173RD OHIO.
This wonderfull gun was sent in from California where it has resided for years. This is a factory engraved gun with factory pearl grips, a very arre gun in and of itself. It has a beautifull inscription on the backstrap, "Presented to Capt. A. W. Bowen By Co. E, 173rd O.V.I.". Our recent research on this gun shows that Bowen was originally mustered into the 6th Ohio in 1861 as a private and was wounded at Chickamauga to muster out in June of '64. He would have also seen service at Shilo and Stones River. He was commissioned into Company E of the 173rd in August of the same year to see service at Nashville. This gun has seen fairly heavy use but has a wonderfull look. The grips are gorgeous and the engraving is still nice. It has a silver plated finish that is contemporary to the period, but appears to have been done after some use or after the war for preservation purposes. It has turned a deep, silver-blue patina and looks awesome. I believe there is a likelihood that this gun is one of two things. It was either captured from the enemy and then plated, inscribed and presented to Bowen, or it was plated by Bowen after the war to preserve it and the memory of his service. Regardless, it is a great, inscribed veteran of the conflict to a soldier that had great history and one who was wounded in battle.

294 - CIVIL WAR GUN. ADAMS REVOLVER, FACTORY ENGRAVED AND FACTORY PRESENTED IN 1864. CIVIL WAR VINTAGE DATED 1864.
This is a great Civil War era Adams Revolver that is factory engraved and inscribed on its top strap; "Major Rawlings from Robert Adams" followed by the adams address. This inscription is 100% original and extremely rare, however I can make no claims as to any association to any Confederate Officer or Soldier with whom these guns were so popular, as I have not had time to have the name researched. I will leave that up to the buyer of this outstanding engraved specimen. The gun is in excellent overall condition to include prox. 80% original blue and near mint action, markings and grips. A vintage Civil War era Adams, the likes of which we may not see again for a very long time.

278 - CIVIL WAR SAVAGE REVOLVER.
This is a very decent old brown gun that is relatively smooth. The action is tight and crisp and it is fully martially marked with a cartouche and all sub-inspection marks. It does have a problem that most of us would dread having. Sadly, the poor fellow has no nipples. If you have some extra's, there's money left in this revolver.

255 - CONFEDERATE LeMAT REVOLVER - ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING, MUSEUM QUALITY FIRST MODEL LeMAT REVOLVER.
According to more than a few well known Confederate dealers and collectors, this is one of the very finest First Model LeMat Revolvers in private hands today. It is exquisite. I bought this wonderfull gun with the intention of keeping it, but found something recently that tickled my fancy a bit more, and I just can't keep it all !! This gun is super sharp and crisp with generous amounts of original blue. The grips are also outstanding. This is one gun that I will not soft-sell. Some say that LeMats are soft right now, but not a two digit 1st Model with finish. It is a very important Confederate artifact that is worthy of the finest museum or personal collection. I would be as interested in a trade as a sale, so if you want to own one of the very best in Confederate collectables, give me a call.

This is a fine gun that needs some TLC. It has 80% original blue on the barrel and frame and a patinaed cylinder. The grips are cartouched and full, but there are some old putty repairs that need to be addressed. This work would greatly increase its value. Otherwise fine and crisp.

This is a superbly crisp and sharp Savage showing edges and action that are nearly crisp as new. It shows virtually no use and has just developed a brown patina over time. Generous traces of blue scattered about the gun mixing with brown and super grips. It is a beauty and priced right.

pt1 - VERY FINE CONDITION PETTINGIL REVOLVER, MARTIALLY MARKED.
This Pettingil is in exceptional condition, and the finest I have had the opportunity to come across. Although it shows little or no finish, it also shows little to no use and is sharp as a tack. It is in a perfectly untouched, attic mint patina with an excellent cartouche on the left grip. It would be very difficult to find a better one. It is also among the only known group of Pettingills that have identified use. Every gun with definatively known issue falls in the serial range 3244 - 4144, and this gun falls within that range. Every gun in that range that has been identified was issued to Company "M" of the 1st Arkansas Cavalry in 1863 and re-issued to the same unit in 1865. This gun was most certainly issued to the that unit.

fr_1 - BEAUTIFULL .44 CAL. AUSTIN T. FREEMAN ARMY SIZED REVOLVER.
This is a great Freeman that has suffered a little bit from poor storage. It shows minor corrosion on the left side of the frame in front of the cylinder, as well as an area to the right rear of the frame near the grips. Other than these two areas, the gun retains 95% original bright blue and is very presentable. The gun is virtually unused.

bt2 - CONFEDERATE ISSUE ENGLISH WEBLEY REVOLVER
At first glance, many Confederate purists may shout down any claim that this is a Confederate weapon, but I tend to put more stock into bonafide documentation than most. Nearly the entire production of Kerr Revolvers are getting credit for being Confederate, based on either Pratt's Squad Roll of Kerr's being issued to his Company "H" of the 18th Virginia Cavalry, or the fact that many documented specimens are marked with a "JS and anchor" on the grips. There is absolutely no proof that JS and anchor marked guns were all used by the Confederacy, but the Pratt list leaves no doubt that many Kerr's in the documented range are DEFINATELY CONFEDERATE. Well, this very good and sound condition Webley falls right in between two other Webleys by serial number ON PRATT'S SQUAD LIST, and in addition, is marked on the top strap "Bentley" as are the two on the list. It has the look, smell, taste, and feel of Confederate, and falls within a documented range unlike most of the Kerrs. It's a great gun supported by facts, not rumor and hope.
