Description


The reliable Calvary sidearm that helped tame the West. Union Army soldiers and mounted soldiers were typically issued these sidearm revolvers designed for the time. They relied heavily on these revolvers for short range and close quarters combat. The revolver was unique and highly sought-after because it had the ability to fire several rounds per minute before having to reload. Revolvers were typically issued as the sidearm of choice to officers and mounted soldiers. However some were purchased privately or found scattered on the battlefield by infantrymen.

this is my first ever Black Powder revolver and this is a beast! the action is smooth as butter and the trigger is just like a hair trigger. shot this on my Birthday, loaded 20 grane 3f Goex powder, a .433 round ball, and this thing can go through Two 2 in wood blocks with no trouble, best revolver i have bought!

the only down side to it is the brass body, cant shoot any high loads without damaging the brass but with standard loads and under, shoots fine. that and fits my hand like a glove, shooting this thing one handed is actually easier than it looks, despite the wood not cut even to flush with the brass but works good anyway.

all in all, its a good gun and i can see how it can be reliable gun for first timers and experienced shooters
