Please text anytime 6476871484. Fully functional mid frame revolver in great condition. Only about 1000 of this rare little revolver were made. It bears the "Bacon Arms Co." name and would fall into possibly a post-Rollin White patent era, between 1872 and 1888. Bacon had earlier lost a patent infringement lawsuit against Smith and Wesson, and it would stand to reason that they would not make the same mistake twice. It is in very good condition. The action is crisp and strong, the cylinder indexes and locks properly, and the bore of the 4 inch barrel is very good, with strong rifling. The rosewood grips are very good, undamaged. Marked "BACON ARMS CO NORWICH CT CAST STEEL" on top of the barrel. Matching numbers on the barrel, frame, cylinder, hammer and trigger. SN 572. Thomas K. Bacon was associated with three companies bearing his name from 1847 to 1888: the first one, called Bacon & Company (1847 - 1857), followed by Bacon Manufacturing Co. (1858 - 1868) and the third intimation, Bacon Arms Co. (1864 - 1888). For about five years there was both a Bacon Manufacturing Co. and a Bacon Arms Co. operating simultaneously in Norwich CT. Thomas Bacon resigned his interests in the third company in 1865 to pursue other interests. The second Bacon firm remained in business under that name until 1868.
