For a year or so, Pond was able to produce a number of Belt Revolvers. This is a rare to find original example of Pond’s 1860 patent .32 Rim Fire 6 shot revolver. It has a 4 ½” octagonal barrel which has a near mint bore, clean and bright with crisp rifling and measures 9” overall length. The top of the barrel has faint L.W. Pond’s name Worcester mass address and 1860 patent detail (illustrated). The barrel and cylinder frame tip up for loading and ejecting rounds which is achieved by depression of a steel button on the frame. It has a shrouded post foresight and notched frame rear sight. There are no external visible serial numbers on the pistol. The revolver has a sheathed trigger and the pistol's single action firing mechanism works crisply. The smooth rosewood grip is excellent and undamaged. The price includes UK delivery. NB As an obsolete calibre rim fire revolver no licence is required to own this item in the UK if retained as a part of a collection or display. Sn 21660
