Show your revolvers and pistols

Here is the 2nd Generation Colt 1860 Army with the fluted cylinder on. I shoot with the rebated cylinder to keep the fluted pristine. Looks nice though!

Wow Rusty.it!

That's excellent!! Is it functional??

long rider,

Yes, the fourth screw is for a shoulder stock and no, unfortunately I don't have one. They are pretty expensive to come by.

At the moment it doesn't work, it is without touch hole in the breech!
Drilling it can put us in a jail with our law :D
It's only for decoration, but the barrel is good carbon steel with solid breech plug wery well welded in place!
Except the wheel all the part come from scraps :)
The carriage isn't correct it's a mix of mountain howitzer and prairie carriage for the best looking!

I was looking for another pic and came across this one. I no longer have these, I sold them to help finance my CAS gear.
Top is a .31 Bacon pocket pistol. Serial number 606 out of approx. 3000.
Bottom is an Allen & Wheelock .22 lipfire. Both made in 1858.

HH, before I read what you wrote I looked at the top pistol & thought, that is a wierd cross breed of a Remington grip & a Colt frame but thought "wait a minute BACON dummy.

Very nice :D
 
Allen&Wheellock

Hi Hawg:
Your picture of the .22 short seven shot Allen & Wheellock revolver is the only other one, that I have seen, than the one that I have. and I have been going to gun shows in Ohio, and Florida since 1950. I traded the Cheif of police in the small town that I live in , in Ohio, a switch blade knife for the one that I have. That was in 1950. I used mine to train my two sons at ages three & four, by letting them shoot it, the difference between their cap guns and a real gun. I was told by a so called expert gun collector years ago, that the little revolver was an Ethan Allen. I sure would like to find out more about the history of this little gun.
Thanks for sharing your photos.

Mine was an Allen & Wheelock. A direct copyright infringement of the Rollin White patent held by S&W. After the lawsuit all the guns not yet sold had to be marked made for S&W by Allen & Wheelock. Mine didn't have it. The cylinder scene was still intact which most I've seen no longer had. I do hope you weren't shooting .22 shorts in it. I saw a similar one blown into three pieces from one .22 short. Ethan Allen made a similar gun as did some others.
 
Nice gun but you can't really call it a replica since a .44 Navy never existed. That's a fantasy gun Pietta dreamed up.
