The cylinder shows deep file marks across the front of the piece with percussion cap system. The revolver features matching serial numbers on the barrel, frame, trigger, cylinder, and grip butt. The Colt 1851 Navy was one of the most classic side arms of the Civil War and later in the Old West.

The colt shows good condition overall with some light wear across the brass and wood grips, with the nickel finished redone. Mechanically the piece shows a tight action with good timing on the cylinder. Serial Number: 70751. This firearm qualifies as an Antique, and does not require FFL Transfer or NICS Background Check.
