EXTREMELY RARE, PROBABLY ONE OF A KIND, SAVAGE NAVY PERCUSSION REVOLVER WITH DETACHABLE SHOULDER STOCK.

EXTREMELY RARE, PROBABLY ONE OF A KIND, SAVAGE NAVY PERCUSSION REVOLVER WITH DETACHABLE SHOULDER STOCK. SN NONE. Cal. 36. Nickel finish with 7-1/4″ oct bbl, brass pin front sight with usual Savage markings on top strap. It has unfluted 6-shot cyl with rammer beneath bbl. Hammer is offset to the right side and internally mounted with heart-shaped trigger guard with a ring trigger and conventional trigger. The ring trigger is used to rotate the cylinder & cock the hammer and the revolver is then fired with the conventional trigger. Mounted with nicely figured, smooth, 2-pc walnut grips. Top of back strap is slotted for the stock latch which is secured with a mechanism inside the grip and locked with a knurled screw through the butt strap. Latch is then released by loosening the screw and pressing it to the rear which articulates the latch at top of back strap to release the stock. Accompanied by its orig unmarked detachable buttstock with long graceful cast brass neck with short top tang and long lower tang and flat langets that fit over the top portion of the grips & grip frame. The yoke is attached to a nicely figured, varnished walnut buttstock with crescent steel buttplate. Brief research disclosed no mention of a detachable shoulder stock for a Savage revolver, so it may be assumed that this is a unique item and possibly the only one known. Lending credence to this theory is the fact the only markings found on the revolver or buttstock is the usual Savage markings on top strap, otherwise it is completely unmarked and without serial numbers. CONDITION: Revolver retains about 25% nickel finish on bbl, under the rammer handle. Balance of revolver, receiver, cylinder & grip frame retain 50-60% orig nickel mixed with dark patina. Grips are sound with light handling & use marks and retain most of their orig oil finish. Mechanics are crisp, bright shiny bore with scattered light pitting toward the muzzle. Stock yoke was never nickel finished and is now a medium dark mustard patina. Buttplate retains traces of orig nickel being mostly a dark patina with light pitting. Buttstock has a hairline by the comb, otherwise is sound with handling & storage nicks, dings & scratches and retains about 80% orig varnish. 4-39110 JR101 (7,000-10,000)
