This 158 year old revolver is in amazing condition and it's a historically significant arm. #1818 is one of 500 shipped to Williams, Peters & Co. in Richmond, VA on April 15th.1861, two days after the surrender of Ft. Sumter. These 500 Colts are the only guns that can be authenticated, by serial number, as being issued to the Confederacy. There are only 55 known to remain and #1818 is in the top five for condition.
