Revolver London Colt 1849 Pocket revolver .31 Revolver

This is a very early - Serial No. 50 - example of a product of Colt's short lived London manufactory. Initially at this early stage, the majority of the revolver parts were shipped over from Colt's Hartford factory, later examples were completely manufactured at the English factory. The main difference being that the later ones had steel backstraps/trigger guards. This is a no finish revolver but a great deal of the silver plate is present on the backstrap/trigger guard and most of the cylinder scene is discernible. A rare piece for anyone's Colt collection
