PAIR OF CARVED IVORY STOCKED FLINTLOCK PISTOLS. NSN. Cal. .70. This is a very attractive near matching pair of carved ivory stocked pistols.

Top of one hammer is replaced. Top jaw and screw of the other are also replaced. One bbl has been bushed and the touch hole moved 1/4″ to the rear and lower to match the pan. Brass furniture appears to be old trigger guards. They are screwed to the surface of the stock. Some small repairs and replacements to the ivory, which mostly have natural age cracks. Carved heads are similar. Please note: Accompanying this lot is a letter from Peter Dredge, at one time owner of the Angel Armory in London, dated 1978 and indicates that he showed these pistols to Mr. J. F. Hayward the head of Sotheby’s Firearms Dept. who purportedly indicated that these were made by Jan Micharivs. According to the letter Mr. Dredge states that Mr. Hayward felt that the pistols were completely authentic late 17th C. Dutch Ivory mounted pistols and a very rare and fine pair of which he indicates that similar examples are now illustrated in the book Dutch Firearms by Arne Hoff. We do not concur. As we have indicated above, we believe the metal portions of the pistol are essentially late 17th or 18th C. and the ivory stocks and gold mounts were added at a later time. They are a very handsome pair and quite showy. CONDITION: Fine appearance with defects as noted. 8-76147 (7,500-12,500)

EXTREMELY RARE BREECHLOADING DOGLOCK MUSKET. NSN. 74 Cal. 44-1/4” part oct bbl. No markings are visible. The lockplate, brass triggerguard, buttplate, sideplate and faucet escutcheons are engraved. A .781 plug 1-5/8” long is screwed into the bottom of the bbl to contain the chamber. A 1/2” wrench is needed to extract it. This musket came from the W. Keith Neal Collection and has been the subject of numerous articles and book chapters concerning 17th C. Tudor or English siege weapons, including Neal & Back’s Great British Gunmakers 1540-1740. (See Plates 44-a through e for the exact gun.) It was sold along with parts of his collection in 1995. Copies of the provenance listed in that catalog accompanies the lot. It is variously described as having a flat lockplate, “engraved with strawberry foliage and with dog-catch in the form of a bird’s head”, with a sideplate in the form of a monster and a thumb piece with “a caricature head”. This figure of a soldier wearing a helmet has a very long nose. The gun came from Timsbury Manor near Bath, England and dates around 1670. To load it, it was turned upside down and the screw plug removed with a wrench, the powder was poured in and the gun tipped up so the powder would go to the rear and the ball was inserted on top of the powder and the screw put back in. The lock was then ready for priming and firing. In J. N. George’s book, English Guns & Rifles, he indicates that guns of this type may have been used in the towers by snipers during a siege to shoot the officers of the siege force. The dragon sideplate is possibly replaced. There is very light raised carving around the bbl tang. There is no hammer screw on the outside of the lock. The lug on the back of the hammer extends through the lockplate and through the tumbler and is secured by a pin passing through the lug. The sear is also secured by a pin and operates against the top of the hammer, unlike most, later flintlocks. There is no bridle on either the tumbler or the frizzen. The front lockplate hook appears to be a replacement. There is a long extension on the tang of the buttplate with block engraving matching that on the breech plug escutcheon. The large v-notch rear sight has a folding leaf with three peepholes drilled in it. There is a large turned ring at the muzzle which has a brass bead sight on top. CONDITION: Lock has a smooth gray patina with some light pitting. Bbl and rear sight have very heavy pitting. Brass furniture has a mellow patina. Stock shows minor repairs and the rear of the lockplate and sideplate with a repaired crack through the wrist. Mechanically fine. 4-59136 FS778 (10,000-20,000)

There is some staking around the touchhole, but no bushing is visible. The large flat, brass sideplate suggests possible pre-Revolutionary manufacture. The trumpet shaped ramrod is possibly a replacement.

Lockplate was not removed due to the fragility of the screws, but frizzen spring and screw are replacements, and internal parts are not guaranteed. Ramrod is a replacement.

The musket is to be of the same length, and to have the same stock (which is to be varnished) as the Cadet Musket, Model of 1866. The arm to be fine sighted and provided with a set trigger; the barrel to be browned; and the name – “J. A. J. Creswell” – to be stamped on the tang of the Butt plate, as the Cadet Muskets are now marked.” This appears to be the single “sporting rifle” that was made in 1871. While the sights appear to be normal, an unusual single set trigger with a large adjustment screw at the rear has been added. Other items accompanying the lot are copies of Creswell’s “REBEL RESOLUTION” of 14 Feb 1861, an autograph, and 2 copies of portraits in gold frames. CONDITION: Excellent. Retains most of blue on bbl and tang with casehardening pattern visible on breechblock and lockplate. Wood is sharp, with minor handling marks. Most of varnish remains.

RARE REMINGTON PERCUSSION SINGLE BARREL SHOTGUN. Cal. 20 bore. NSN. These rare shotguns were recently identified, around 1990, by Jay Huber, only after he had purchased an extremely rare 1877 Remington catalogue which listed this model of shotgun.

Standard two line markings on bbl, inspector marks on the frame, bbl, & cyl. although there is no cartouche on the grips. A large “C” is stamped on the right side of the frame under the grip. The consignor feels that this is a condemnation mark because of the cracked bbl. Cracks could have occurred at test firing. Gun shows use so nust have been sold to state militia or civilian market circa 1862. Good example of a reject. CONDITION: Fair. Smooth gray patina on iron surfaces. Grips have been revarnished over dents & worn spots. Bore is fair. Mechanically good. 4-59381 JH141 (1,000-1,200)

REMINGTON NEW MODEL NAVY REVOLVER. Cal 36 Perc. SN 28036. Blued finish, 7-7/16” oct bbl, pinched blade front sight, 2-pc smooth walnut grips, silver-plated brass trigger-guard.

This revolver was one of 500 delivered to the New York Navy Yard on June 30, 1864 according to consignor’s research. CONDITION: Good. Blue/brown patina overall with some signs of cleaning. Grips have numerous shallow dents and somewhere around the bottom, all covered with varnish. Bore is pore, action is fine. 4-59380 JH115 (1,750-2,500)

Blued finish, 7-3/8” oct bbl with standard three line markings, pinched front sight, silvered brass triggerguard, 2-pc smooth walnut grips. This revolver was produced at the end of the Civil War circa 1865/66. It is a typical commercial model in that it has a silvered triggerguard and varnished grips. “C” stamped on left side of frame & triggerguard. This is the only large frame Civil War revolver that Remington continued to produce after the end of the war and later they were produced as cartridge conversions in 38 RF & CF. CONDITION: Good.

Blued finish, 6-1/2” oct bbl, dovetail cone front sight, silvered brass triggerguard, 2-pc smooth walnut grips with initials carved in bottom of both grips. This revolver is one of the rare fluted cylinder belt models, one of less than 1,000 made in 1863 during the Civil War. Consignor believes that revolver was intended to be sold to the military, however it never was accepted & wound up being sold in the civilian market. At the end of war the 36 caliber belt model was again put into production mostly with plain cylinder and eventually as a cartridge conversion for cartridge revolver. CONDITION: Fair to good. All iron surfaces have been cleaned removing most of the marking on bbl. Triggerguard has strong traces of silver remaining. Balance of metal has a brown patina with light pitting, mostly on the hammer. Grips show wear on high edges, base, & have minor chips at top. Grips have been refinished.

REMINGTON DOUBLE ACTION BELT MODEL REVOLVER. Cal. 36 Perc. SN 2441. Blued finish, 6-3/8” oct bbl with two line bbl marking, listing two of Riders’ patents. Pinched front sight, silvered brass triggerguard, 2-pc smooth walnut grips. There is an “E” on left side of triggerguard & a “W” on cyl. Revolver was apparently made after Civil War & used double action war time bbl since markings are “REMINGTONS’” which was the markings on bbls of early double action fluted cylinder revolvers. It appears orig bbl number was “111” and was re-stamped “2441” by Remington. The double action of this revolver is working condition, which is not common to these DA belt models. CONDITION: Good. Strong traces of orig blue on bbl, enhanced finish on frame, cyl, & loading lever. Triggerguard has about half the silver remaining. Grips have been refinished over worn spots. 4-59401 JH94 (750-1,250)

The engraving is well done covering half of bbl, all of frame, part of triggerguard & outside center of cylinder. A rarely seen piece. This revolver had been machined to accept a conversion cylinder for cartridge conversion & now has a percussion cylinder installed & engraved to match. Perhaps somewhere there is a conversion cylinder to match this revolver & engraving. CONDITION: Fine. Smooth blue/brown patina overall. Patina on cyl has matched that on frame. 80% silver on triggerguard. Grips have been re-varnished. Mechanics are good. Bright bore with moderate pitting. 4-59399 JH90 (1,500-2,500)

All six safety pins are present. This relatively hard to find Colt was manufactured in early 1861, the first year of production. It saw Civil War service in the U.S. Navy and is verified by the anchor stamp placed on the barrel during an 1866 inspection of Civil War Naval inventory. The anchor mark indicates that the revolver is okay for return to service. CONDITION: Good. All iron parts have been cleaned & chemically treated, enhancing the appearance of the finish. Mottled patina on the backstrap & triggerguard with some battering at the butt. Sides of grip also have numerous dents & scratches under the newly applied varnish. Bore is evenly pitted.

ENGRAVED GOLD & SILVER PLATED REMINGTON BEALS NAVY CONVERSION REVOLVER. Cal. 38 CF. SN 13278. Conversion #15. 5th Variation. The entire gun was orig silver plated with a gold wash applied over the top of the silver, except loading lever & cylinder. Triggerguard still shows faint traces of the gold wash towards the butt. 7-1/2” oct bbl, dovetail cone front sight, 2-pc smooth burl walnut grips. This revolver was originally purchased by the U.S. Navy as a blued percussion model early in the Civil War. It was returned to Remington, under the contract in 1874 by the Navy for conversion 38 CF cartridge. It is also one of a few hundred that had the rear of the cylinder turned down by the Navy (1885-86) to correct a jamming problem; later found to be a problem of the ammo and not the revolver. It was probably sent out to be engraved & refinished sometime after 1886 & perhaps done for an officer as a presentation piece or a memento of his service. The engraving is typical New York style Remington. These Remington conversions were used up until 1889 when the Navy purchased Colt revolvers. CONDITION: Fine. Retains about 80% of the gold wash, mostly missing on the triggerguard & bottom of frame. Almost all of the silver remains. Grips are fine with minor handling marks. Bore is very good. Action is fine. 4-59324 JH129 (3,500-5,000)

ENGRAVED REMINGTON NEW MODEL ARMY CARTRIDGE CONVERSION REVOLVER. Cal. 46 CF. SN 97757. Conversion #EE10 on left side of loading lever & on left side of frame under grip. Nickel finish with 8” oct bbl with crisp bbl markings, 2-pc walnut grips, pinched front sight. Consignor states that revolver came from Remington Factory Museum through Arnie Chernoff & Ron Ogan. It was an experiment since the 46 cal. CF cartridge was never commercially manufactured and marketed. Cylinder stamped with “PATENTED APRIL 3D”. Circa 1866-1874. This was originally a military revolver as it has inspector marks on various parts. The floral scroll engraving extends from front of frame onto rear of bbl and simple sine wave lines are under cyl on both sides of frame. CONDITION: Generally fine, most surfaces have been cleaned without affecting the nickel. Grips have minor nicks & dents. Bore is good. Action is fine. 4-59325 JH43 (4,000-6,000)

REMINGTON NEW MODEL ARMY CARTRIDGE CONVERSION REVOLVER. Cal. 46 RF. SN 137772. Conversion #1932. Blued finish, 8” oct bbl, pinched front sight, conversion cylinder with S&W/White patent date stamp, brass triggerguard, 2-pc smooth walnut grips with government cartouche on left grip. Accompanied by a detachable nickel shoulder stock. This revolver is a typical S&W/Remington conversion contract revolver that is military inspected from leftover Civil War inventory. Consignor found this revolver with shoulder stock hardware installed on butt & adapted a non-factory shoulder stock of Frank Wesson type to this revolver to fit the existing hardware. Quite unusual & rarely seen. CONDITION: Fine. 75% blue on iron parts, worn on the grip straps & high points. Reproduction stock retains much of the orig finish and nearly all of the added finish on the altered parts. Bore is lightly pitted, action is fine. 4-59328 JH140 (4,000-6,000)

RARE REMINGTON 61 NAVY CONVERSION REVOLVER. Cal. 38 RF. SN 16244. Nickel finish, 7-3/8” oct bbl, cone front sight, 2-pc smooth walnut grips with cartouche. This revolver is marked on cylinder, “PAT. APP’D FOR” and was military inspected & apparently bought as surplus and converted to cartridge by other than Remington. Consignor has seen many 44 cal Remingtons with “PATENT APPLIED FOR” on cylinder that were apparently converted by same gunsmith. This conversion revolver with these markings on cylinder is the only one of its kind consignor has ever seen in 38 cal. CONDITION: Good. Nickeled at time of conversion, most of which remains with some areas of flaking & light surface rust. Grips have normal wear & tear. Bore is lightly pitted. 4-59478 JH89 (1,500-2,500)

REMINGTON NEW MODEL NAVY CARTRIDGE CONVERSION REVOLVER. Cal. 38 CF & RF. SN 43031. Nickel finish, 7-1/2” oct bbl with standard three line marking, pinched front sight, casehardened hammer, 2-pc smooth walnut grips. This revolver is an experimental model modifying the improved Navy Model. It was made from scratch as a cartridge gun. It has two separate firing pins that were depressed simultaneously as the hammer dropped in firing. The top firing pin would strike the rim of the chambered cartridge and the lower firing pin would strike the center of the cartridge. The upper firing pin is missing in the revolver. As a result of this design, the revolver could fire either center or rim fire cartridges in the chamber under the hammer. The revolver would fire any combination in cylinder. Circa 1878 after the 38 CF cartridge was introduced. This is the only one known to exist. It never went into production, perhaps because it would ruin a center fire cartridge for reloading with a dent in the rim. Reloading was becoming very popular at this place in time. CONDITION: Very good. Retains 90% of current nickel, which covers some of the pitting on frame & cyl. There is new flaking and light pitting on bbl & loading assembly. 30% silver remains on triggerguard with numerous dents & scratches. Grips have been refinished. Bore is good with light pitting. Action is fine. 4-59322 JH75 (2,250-2,500)

REMINGTON NEW MODEL ARMY CARTRIDGE CONVERSION REVOLVER. Cal. 44 CF. SN 114089 on the left side of frame under the grip, 121589 on the bottom of the bbl, 13091 in pencil on both grips. Conversion numbers 514 on the right side of frame under grips & 508 on the bottom of bbl. Cyl is unmarked. Blued finish, 8” oct bbl, pinched front sight, brass triggerguard, 2-pc smooth walnut grips with “GP” cartouche. This is a Civil War military inspected parts revolver assembled from three revolvers (121589, 114089 & 34541) and converted by Remington to cartridge probably around 1870 to 1874. Chambers the 44 Remington, Colt, S&W, and Martin primed Colt & Remington Centerfire cartridges. It is somewhat of a mystery revolver & bears continued research into its manufacture. 44 CF Remington Conversions done by Remington are not very common. CONDITION: Fine with over half the blue with losses due to flaking rather than wear. Grips show light wear. Bore is bright, mechanically excellent. 4-59330 JH145 (1,750-2,500)

REMINGTON NEW MODEL ARMY CONVERSION REVOLVER WITH SPARE PERCUSSION CYLINDER. Cal. 44 perc & 46 RF. SN 81903. Blued finish with 8” oct bbl with standard three line bbl markings, 2-pc walnut grips, pinched front sight. This revolver does not have military markings & was most likely made up of leftover military parts around 1868-1870. It comes with a percussion cylinder which as been modified to fit in the conversion recoil plate. SN 1915 appears on the rear of percussion cyl. It is interesting that the 5-shot cartridge cylinder and the 6-shot percussion cylinder can be interchanged and index perfectly in the revolver. The cartridge cyl is marked, “PATENTED APRIL 3D 1855”. Conversion number “1241” is marked on bottom of bbl, and left side of frame under grip. The initials, “UB” are on the left side of the triggerguard. It is also interesting to note that the revolver is referred to on the displayed B. Kittredge letterhead dated 1868 and refers to the two cylinders. Even though it refers to it as a 44 cal. cartridge, consignor feels they really meant the 46 RF cartridges. (These two cartridges used a 44 lead bullet and the 46 was often referred to as a 44. The Remington split breech carbine of the Civil War used a 46 RF cartridge but was called & marked a 44.) CONDITION: Fine, with 60% orig blue mixed with light surface rust & flaking. Grips show normal handling marks. Bore is lightly pitted, action is good. Cartridge cyl has only traces of finish and is mostly a brown patina. 4-59323 JH46 (2,000-2,500)

REMINGTON NEW MODEL ARMY CONVERSION REVOLVER. Cal. 46 RF. SN 124849. Conversion #777. Blued finish, 8” oct bbl with standard three line markings, pinched front sight, brass triggerguard, 2-pc smooth walnut grips with “O.W.A” cartouche on left grip. There is no Rollin White patent marking on cyl. There is a Remington patented cartridge ejector, a typical Remington recoil plate conversion. Frame is marked in large letters “C.A. 385”. Research has not provided consignor with information as to what this marking means. Consignor is inclined to believe that Remington took a contract with the U.S. Army Cavalry for about 400 (has never seen a number over 400) of these revolvers and sold them under the table, so to speak, since the S&W/White patent was still in effect. Consignor thinks this gun design was created shortly after the Civil War to use the Remington Split Breech 46 RF carbine cartridge which was invented at the end of the war. (These revolvers were actually marked 44 cal.) This cartridge chambers perfectly in these 46 caliber conversions. A newly found 1872 orig Remington catalogue confirms that these conversions were offered in 46RF Short, 46RF long (46RF carbine cartridge). Remington Society of America would like to solve the “C.A.” mystery and would appreciate any help. CONDITION: Very good. 40% blue overall mixed with surface rust & light pitting. Grips show light wear & some dents. Bore is bright but lightly pitted. Mechanically fine. 4-59327 JH133 (1,600-2,700)

RARE ENGRAVED REMINGTON NEW MODEL NAVY CONVERSION REVOLVER. Cal. 38 RF. SN 44598. Conversion #32. Blued finish with 7-1/2 oct bbl with standard three line markings, pinched front sight & beautiful 2-pc burl walnut grips. Circa 1874-78. Commercial model for the English market. Barrel is stamped with London proof marks. Consignor states that this may have been one of nine revolvers made up for Remington’s London Office, 15 Queen Victoria St. (Cyl marked “30”, loading lever “39”) Consignor states that this could be an indication of parts reassembly error after revolvers were disassembled for proofing. Remington conversion revolvers are very rare. CONDITION: Very fine, with 80% blue overall. Worn mostly on grip straps, with some flaking on right side of frame. Bright casehardening color on hammer. Grips appear to have been re-varnished. Mechanically good. 4-59321 JH53 (1,750-2,250)

REMINGTON SINGLE ACTION POLICE MODEL CONVERSION REVOLVER. Cal. 38 RF. SN 481. Conversion #31 on the bottom of bbl, “235” on the rear of cyl & conversion plate. Blued finish, 4-1/2” oct bbl with crisp marking applied from cyl to muzzle, silvered brass triggerguard, 2-pc smooth light walnut grips, casehardened hammer. CONDITION: Very good to fine, retaining most of the silver on triggerguard, 80% of the blue on bbl, cyl, & loading lever. Bright casehardening colors on hammer. There is a small chip repair at the left heel of grips & slight wear at the edges. Bore has light pitting. Mechanically fine. 4-59339 JH96 (2,000-3,000)

REMINGTON POLICE MODEL CONVERSION REVOLVER. Cal. 38 RF. SN 2596. Conversion number “95” is on bottom of bbl & left side of the frame under grip. Cyl & conversion plate both have the number “1473”.

CONDITION: Very good. Finish has been polished, but appears to be orig with scattered specks of surface rust. Grips are worn at the base, and have dents & scratches but retain most of their varnish. Bore is lightly pitted. Mechanically fine. 4-59402 JH143 (750-1,500)

REMINGTON NEW MODEL ARMY CARTRIDGE CONVERSION REVOLVER. Cal. 46 RF. SN 137026. Nickel finish with 8” oct bbl with standard three line marking, pinched front sight, 2-pc walnut grips with “JWK” cartouche. The conversion number “2913” is stamped on the bottom of the bbl & left side of frame under grip. Back of cyl has various marks. This revolver is typical of the Smith & Wesson/Remington contract conversion of 1868-1870. It is one of over 4,500 leftover percussion military guns sent to Smith & Wesson for conversion by B. Kittredge Co. of Cincinnati, OH for conversion to cartridge. All the cylinders of this contract were stamped with the White patent date “PATENTED APRIL 3D 1855.” Smith & Wesson held the rights to the White Patent (bored through cylinder) until expiration in 1869. Revolver is an example of the blued contract type. Many or most revolvers were refinished at this time; this was one of the few nickled. The conversion was done for $3.3825 each with Smith & Wesson retaining $1.00 royalty. The orig contract revolvers were supplied without the patented ejector. (This was added to revolvers made after this contract was complete.) CONDITION: Retains much of the nickel plating applied at the time of conversion, with some flaking on bbl, & wear on triggerguard. Grips have been varnished over the light chips & dings. Bore is good with light pitting. Mechanically fine. 4-59326 JH45 (3,000-4,000)

REMINGTON NEW MODEL NAVY CONVERSION REVOLVER. Cal. 38 CF. SN 27530. Conversion #309. Blued finish, 7-3/8” oct bbl, pinched front sight, 2-pc smooth walnut grips. Nice example of Remington/Navy contract of 1875 to convert 36 cal Remington percussion revolvers in Navy inventory to 38 center fire. Gun orig built in early 1864. CONDITION: Very good to fine. Retains about 60% of blue on bbl & cyl, with strong traces on frame & loading lever. Some casehardening colors remain on the hammer which also shows signs of repair. Entirely refinished at time of conversion, removing part of bbl marking. Grips have been refinished. Bore is very good. Action is fine. 4-59391 JH88 (1,500-2,000)

SCARCE REMINGTON NEW MODEL ARMY CONVERSION REVOLVER. Cal. 45 Colt CF. SN 84632. Blued finish with 8” oct bbl with three line bbl markings, pinched front sight, 2-pc walnut grips with cartouche. These revolvers are said to have been converted to cartridge by Osgood Gun Shop, Bangor, Maine around the turn of the century. The serial number on the cyl, conversion plate, & loading gate is “846”. These will be found in 44 & 45 caliber and were converted by adding a recoil plate with a loading gate and providing a new cylinder. An extra long firing pin was added to the hammer to search through the recoil plate. Basic revolvers were most likely purchased from the government at auction after the Civil War. Another example of this revolver was found in the 1980 Mouldenhauer Auction. CONDITION: Good. 30% blue on bbl, frame, & loading lever. Conversion plate & cyl have a gray patina with light pitting. Grips have numerous small dents on the right side and are missing chips at the base. Bore is lightly pitted, action is fine. 4-59479 JH48 (1,500-2,000)

RARE PROTOTYPE REMINGTON/BEALS CARTRIDGE SPUR TRIGGER SINGLE ACTION REVOLVER. Cal. 32 RF. NSN. Blued finish, smoothbore 4” oct bbl, missing front sight, spur trigger with typical Beals’ design gutta percha handmade bag grips in three pieces, two sides & the bottom. It has a drop down cyl pin with ball catch. There are no markings anywhere on revolver. The revolver appears to be a very well made, hand-machined, model shop type prototype, using Fordyce Beals basic design patterns. Because of certain Beals design features used, the consignor’s research dates the gun circa 1860-1862. This revolver was probably not marketed since it was a definite infringement on the Rollin White Patent owned by Smith & Wesson at that time. Smith & Wesson began winning their court infringement cases in 1862 and more than likely this kept Remington from producing this revolver. Accompanied by a copy of the Oct. 1991 Gun Report containing an article written by Mr. Huber, the consignor, about this revolver. In the article is a copy of an October 1860 price list which he believes refers to this revolver. The price list states “We have now in process of manufacture a new and superior CARTRIDGE LOADING REVOLVER which will be ready for market in the course of two or three months.” Revolver is pictured on p. 200 in The Guns of Remington, Madaus.

RARE AND HISTORIC COLT SINGLE ACTION ARMY REVOLVER EXCAVATED FROM THE NEZ PERCE/COL. GIBBONS BATTLE SITE AT BIG HOLE, MONTANA. Cal. appears to be 45 Colt. SN: unable to determine. This wonderful, relic condition, single action was excavated from the Big Hole Battlefield in the late 1950’s and was gifted to the consignor by his friend, Arnotte Millett. This well documented battle occurred on Aug. 9, 1877 when Chief Joseph’s Nez Perce Tribe, fleeing to Canada, were surprised and attacked by Colonel Gibbon’s 7th Infantry. Chief Joseph, one of the finest tacticians of that era, rallied his warriors and drove the infantry from the field and pinned them down until the rest of his band could escape. The Nez Perce, in their flight to avoid being confined to a reservation, were never defeated or captured over their several hundred mile journey through some of the harshest landscape in North America, outfighting and outmaneuvering the army all the way, they only surrendered after having become exhausted and starved, and thinking they were already in Canada. The revolver appears to have been a standard Colt, probably a 5-1/2″ artillery model and remains as found with five chambers of the cylinder containing brass cartridge cases with chamber under hammer empty, as was standard practice in the army. It appears that the revolver was in the process of being cocked when it was dropped, leading one to speculate that the trooper carrying it was struck down in the process. It is missing complete ejector rod housing, grip; hammer spring, & loading gate. All five of the loaded chambers have visible cartridge cases with one appearing to have lead or something of that nature where someone has dug into the cartridge case head. The entire surface of revolver has massive pitting from its long internment. Accompanied by a small framed diorama with a photograph of Chief Joseph and another of the battle site with a cluster of standing teepee poles. Attached to the back of the diorama is a notarized statement by Arnotte J. Millett dated 11 26, 1992 wherein he states that this revolver, as found, was presented to him in the early 1950’s by “Harry Too Good, an Indian guide relative and owner of the French Basin Ranch in Southwest Montana”. He also states that he was told this revolver was found on the Big Hole Battlefield near Wisdom, Montana. An extremely rare relic of one of the most incredible Indian/military engagements in history. CONDITION: As noted, extremely heavily pitted with a very dark brown crusty patina with soil in bbl and openings around the cylinder. The diorama is fine. 4-59489 JR178 (10,000-30,000)
