EXCELLENT MODEL 1863 SINGLE ACTION CIVIL WAR STARR ARMY REVOLVER.
01-27779
Cal. 44
S# 42010
Standard configuration, 8″ barrel, solid blued steel frame marked on either side: “STARR ARMS CO. NEW YORK” & “STARR’S PATENT JAN. 15, 1856”. Serial numbers start at 23000 continuing the numbers from earlier double action revolver production. This revolver was made in early 1864 and part of 25,000 US government contract.
Starr was the third most common government contracted cavalry sidearm, behind Colt and Remington, and is exceptionally difficult to find in excellent condition and this would be a difficult example to upgrade.
STATUS: ANTIQUE
