These were manufactured in the early 1860s and fired a .32 caliber rimfire cartridge.

The short 3” barrel is round at the muzzle and transitions to square (with facets on top) at the breech. Small brass bead sight at muzzle and notch sight toward back. Barrel pivots to right to load. Auto ejector works well. No barrel markings other than serial number (562) underneath. Bore is clear with minor pitting and light rifling.

Frame features a “lip” at the breech on which the barrel aligns as it swings open and closed. Spur trigger. Walnut grips.

All gun metal has matching light gray tone with light spotting. Grips have attractive wood tone with minor wear along bottom edge. Hammer / trigger mechanics remain strong and operate well.

A nice little vest or pocket pistol of the Civil War era.  [jet] [ph:L]
