Pretty Darn Good Rogers & Spencer Army Model Revolver. 44 caliber, serial number 1456. Barrel length is 7 1/2", octagon with a brass, cone-style sight. Six-shot round cylinder. Blue finish. Frame, barrel, and trigger guard have "D" inspector's marks. Two-piece walnut grips. Left panel has a cartouche that appears to be "RRB."

A US Ordnance contract for 5,000 revolvers was delivered in April and September 1865; no records indicate the guns were ever issued. In 1901, Francis Bannerman of New York acquired nearly the entire lot and sold them through their catalogs. At any rate they are a quality well made arm that sits really nice in your hand. Proper in any collection of Civil War arms.

CONDITION: 40% dull, fading blue, showing spots of wear. Grips have an open-pore refinish over dents, marks, and small chips. Sound action. Bore shows small spots of very light pitting and retains strong rifling.
