PALMETTO ARMORY PISTOL. This is a fine “as found” Palmetto Armory Mod. 1842 single shot pistol of which only 1000 were made and this is a much better than average sample, gray in attic condition with good patina. Markings are crisp and sharp as can be found. Gun is 100% orig and authentic and still retains orig brown finish on bottom of bbl and a file compiled by Palmetto expert, Dr. Frederick Novy, accompanies. CONDITION: Bbl, lock and iron are dark and uncleaned with pitting. Lock markings of “Palm Tree” surrounded by “Palmetto Armory, S.C.” are crisp and well struck as is “Columbia, S.C. 1852″as can be seen in photos. Bbl markings “1853” on tang, “P/V/Palm Tree” and “Wm. Glaze” are present and crisp with exception of “P” which is very lightly struck and barely discernible. Stock is smooth with good red color and several hairline cracks, but overall sound and solid. 4-46147 JS302 (7,000-9,000)
