CONFEDERATE C.H. RIGDON AUGUSTA GEORGIA REVOLVER. Cal 36, SN2154. This is a very rare gun, once in the collection of Norm Flayderman. This gun is marked on the three top flats of the part oct bbl housing “CH RIGDON”, “CSA” and “AUGUSTA GA”. Very few guns are known with these markings, most Rigdon and Ansley’s are simply marked “CSA”. All major components of this gun appear original Serial number “2154” appears on the loading arm, latch, bbl housing, frame, trigger guard, backstrap and cylinder. This is the first C. H. Rigdon marked gun that we know of coming up for public auction. CONDITION: Metal surfaces are gray and smooth. Gun appears to have been cleaned and buffed at an earlier time. Serial numbers are still strong and easy to read however, bbl markings are only partially discernible as can be seen in photos. The wedge and arbor are not serialized and are probable replacements. 4-40686 JS42 (35,000-45,000)
