Title 31-calibre Baby Dragoon Colt with holster
Nationality American
Period c 1850
Sold

Rare example of early pattern. Note round cylinder stops. 90%+ engraving survives on cylinder scene. Much original varnish to grips. Silver plate finish to back strap and trigger guard appears to be original. Action in reasonable shape for age. Holster with minor wear and tear to stitching and surface.

NB: The serial number on the cylinder is a mismatch (but still within the 1,000 range) with the serial numbers of the rest of the weapon which latter are all matching.

Thanks very much for the bayonet. I am very happy, I think your photos of your items are great because nothing is hidden and you can clearly see them. (Unlike some other dealers.) Everything was as you describe, I will be keeping a eye on your site for any further bayonets for my collection.
