Manufactured in Italy by Uberti. Uberti is a well-known manufacturer of high quality replicas of 19th century American percussion revolvers, carbines and rifles. These replicas are used by historical re-enactors and target shooters. The Colt Revolving Belt Pistol or Navy Pistol, sometimes erroneously referred to as "Colt Revolving Belt Pistol of Naval Calibre" or "of Navy Calibre" (Naval is heavy gun and Navy Size Calibre was termed later for another Colt model), is a cap and ball revolver that was designed by Samuel Colt between 1847 and 1850. After the Civil War, revolvers using fixed metallic cartridges came into widespread use. The Colt Navy remained in production until 1873, being replaced in the Colt line with what would become one of the manufacturer's most famous handguns, the Colt Single Action Army (also known as the Peacemaker and Colt 45). Total production numbers of the Colt 1851 Navy Revolver were exceeded only by the Colt Pocket models in concurrent development, and numbered some 215,000 domestic units and about 42,000 produced in the Colt London Armory. The cylinder of the revolver is engraved with a scene of the victory of the Second Texas Navy at the Battle of Campeche on May 16, 1843 *some minor age related wear to the cylinder* the pistol cocks and dry fires correctly in single action. The price includes UK delivery and deactivation certificate D 5976
