This mainspring is a two legged "W" shaped flat spring that attaches to the hammer stirrup as the original spring did and the second leg is used to power the rebound slide. Several original parts were removed or altered for the use of this spring but it appears the revolver can be restored to the normal springs by replacing the mainspring, adding a rebound slide, rebound slide spring and installing a new strain screw. The five-screw model was only made for about one year before the upper sideplate screw was deleted. The gun includes a pair of half-moon clips.

Rogers & Spencer Army Model Cartridge Conversion Revolver

Lot #1139 (Sale Order 140 of 901)

serial #5236, 44 RF, 7 1/2" octagon barrel with a good bore showing strong rifling, a ring of light pitting toward the muzzle and some further scattered light oxidation and frosting. The metal surfaces of this revolver have toned to a mix of gray, brown and silver with some pinprick pitting, freckling, small dings and tool marks and minor oxidation staining throughout. The markings on the topstrap remain very strong, a number of the screws show some slot head damage and the two lower frame screws and axis pin retaining nut appear to be more modern replacements. The smooth walnut grips are correct but both are numbered to other guns, the right being 5853 and the left 5170. They are not perfectly fitted to the frame and remain in good overall condition as lightly cleaned with small dings, chips and handling marks throughout. The left panel also has a 1 1/2" crack at the heel. The cylinder, frame and barrel are all matching and everything about this conversion appears to be consistent with a period modification. The loading lever has been removed and its dovetail filled in and the revolver now features a frame-mounted firing pin and loading gate. Overall a very interesting piece that, although well-used, remains in excellent mechanical condition with a strong hammer and proper timing and lockup.

There is lightly cleaned pitting under the newer finish, freckling, small dings and tool marks scattered about. The trigger does retain some original fire temper blue in the protected areas but has mostly toned to a mottled gray. All of the markings still remain very clear and the revolver retains its correct Kerr's Patent loading lever, a few of the screw heads show some slot damage and the cylinder axis pin retaining screw is missing. The checkered one-piece walnut grip remains in very good condition, perhaps having been lightly refinished long ago and show no signs of military inspector cartouches. There is some flaking varnish throughout along with some minor flattening and chipping of the points, small dings and handling marks. The lanyard hole is complete with its brass insert intact, the sliding safety is present and the cylinder and frame are matching. The double action only mechanism still functions quite well with proper timing and lockup just a little loose making for a very good representative example overall. (138527-72) {ANTIQUE}

Whitney Navy Second Model 5th Type Percussion Revolver

Lot #1141 (Sale Order 142 of 901)

Description Update (11/8/17): Withdrawn

serial #27500, .36 cal, 7 1/2" octagon barrel with a good bore showing strong rifling and some light scattered oxidation and pitting. The metal surfaces of this revolver retain remnants of old reapplied blue that has mostly toned to a dull dark gray throughout. The gripstraps are worn to gunmetal and there is high edge wear, a few dings, a patch of chatter marks on the top of the barrel, freckling and some hazy pinprick pitting under the finish. The cylinder scene is almost completely worn away. The brass triggerguard is a mix of goldenrod and ochre perhaps having been lightly cleaned and shows some minor oxidation staining and a few light dings. The smooth walnut grips are mismatched, both numbered to gun 6591 and are not a perfect fit to the frame. They remain in about very good condition showing flaking varnish, a few small dings and handling marks. All other serialized parts including the triggerguard, barrel, cylinder and lever assembly are matching the frame. The top barrel flat is marked with an anchor, although strangely it has been stamped the other direction and there is no "US" marking next to it or any other markings on the cylinder. Also curious are the nipples that are made from brass, they appear to have been with this revolver for quite some time. This revolver still functions very well with a strong hammer and proper timing and lockup. Overall a rather interesting example. (138527-39) {ANTIQUE}

E.A. Prescott Single Action Navy Revolver

Lot #1142 (Sale Order 143 of 901)

serial #61, 38 RF, 7 1/8" octagon barrel with an about very good bore showing strong rifling and some light scattered oxidation and pinprick pitting. The metal surfaces of the barrel and cylinder have been lightly cleaned to smooth gray with some minor freckling and a few scattered pinprick pits. The markings have softened on the barrel and there is evidence of an older reapplied nickel finish that has mostly been cleaned away. The brass frame and triggerguard retain about 75% older reapplied nickel with flaking to brass underneath, mostly on the left side and triggerguard and a few scattered dings. The hammer also has had nickel finish reapplied with some areas worn to gunmetal and pinprick pitting underneath the nickel. The smooth walnut grips are stamp-numbered to the gun and remain in very good condition as lightly cleaned long ago with a few scattered dings and handling marks. The hammer screw on this example may be a later replacement and the brass triggerguard is a rather crude replacement that does not cover the cylinder stop spring. The barrel and cylinder are matching to the frame and everything remains fully functional with good timing and lockup just a little loose, however pulling the trigger too far back will disengage the cylinder stop. A good overall representative example of these interesting revolvers that infringed on Rollin White's patent. (138525-20) {ANTIQUE}

Description Update (11/1/17): This lot has been withdrawn.

serial #18495, 45-70 Govt, 22" barrel with a bright very good plus bore showing strong evident rifling with scattered frosting and fine pitting.

The frame, breechblock and tang are a much darker gray-brown with some very fine oxidation, while the lockplate and hammer are a pale smoky gray with areas of brown along the edges, the markings still visible. The triggerguard and buttplate are a rich dark brown with patches of moderate oxidation on the buttplate and the sling bar is a mottled gray brown with the ring pale gray overall. The stock rates good to about very good showing what is likely an old light cleaning still retaining a good amount of dents and marks, three thin cracks at the sling bar, a longer hairline crack along the left wrist and an old glue repaired angular crack in the right side of the stock between the frame and front of the lockplate. The wood is a bit shy at the toe and the cartouche and firing proof are no longer visible, however a large "305" is stamped in the left side of the stock under the rear sight. The carbine is equipped with a two position tumbler, iron firing pin and coarsely checkered hammer. The mechanism is crisp and mechanically functional. Accompanying the carbine is a collection of research, family letters and photos stating this carbine was given to a young Wylie Smith as his family traveled west by wagon train shortly after the war, where his older brothers served on opposites sides. The story told by Wylie's son Ernie was that the carbine was given to his father who was in his teens at the time by the wagon master for shooting a crow at 100 yards. It is not known if the photos are of the Smith family only they have been with the family for some time. Ernie Smith died in 1994 and the carbine was in his possession since the passing of his father in 1935 and the carbine was given to the consignor by his widow. A neat looking carbine with frontier history who's further research could prove interesting. (58527-7) {ANTIQUE}

The one-piece walnut grip rates near very good showing wear commensurate with the balance of the revolver. Colonel Charles K. Graham enlisted on April 15, 1861 at New York City as a Colonel. He was commissioned into Field & Staff of 74th New York Infantry on April 10, 1862 and was discharged for promotion to Brigadier General on November 29, 1862 and was then commission into U.S. Volunteers General Staff where he would later be promoted to Major General on March 13, 1865 by Brevet. Samuel Irwin enlisted on May 21, 1861 also in New York City and was mustered in the 82nd New York Infantry. He is listed as Killed in Action at Bull Run but was also listed as a POW at Bull Run and there is a record of him being imprisoned in Alabama. There are other records indicating he survived the war and later died in 1884 of heart disease. How these two knew each other is not known but this revolver would make an excellent research project. The inscription is period and beautifully engraved. This is an interested Colt Army revolver identified to a New York Civil War officer. (18527-68) {ANTIQUE}

Fine Large Pair of Center Hammer Screw Barrel Flintlock Pistols by Grice

Lot #1226 (Sale Order 227 of 901)

The triggerguard, trigger, cock and frizzen are all of iron and bear a rich brown patina with sides of cocks showing nice punchdot decoration around its edges.

The checkered hard rubber grips are both scratch-numbered to the gun and remain in near excellent condition with some minor scratches, handling marks and the right grip fading to a brown color overall. All other serialized parts on this revolver are matching. The knife mechanism functions very well, the revolver works fine in single and double action, although timing is in need of some attention and there is some slight play between the barrel and frame. This interesting revolver includes a custom dark blue leatherette case with blue felt lining that remains in very good condition with some minor scuffs and fraying at the hinge. Overall a quite nice example of these scarce and collectable revolvers. (138437-1) {C&R}

The remainder has worn to smooth gray gunmetal with a few scattered freckles, scratches and very tiny pinprick pits. The hammer retains some very nice hints of original case-hardened colors toning to smoky gray. The nose of the hammer has some minor damage but the nipples are in near excellent condition overall and the chambers are very clean. The brass triggerguard retains about 60% silver plating with the remaining brass relatively bright overall. The barrel markings are mostly visible but appear to have been rather lightly stamped and the front sight appears to be a period replacement brass post. The smooth walnut grips remain in near excellent condition as lightly cleaned with little original finish remaining and just a few small dings and handling marks scattered about. Both grips appear to have been originally pencil-numbered "7529" but this number has been crossed out in both cases and replaced with the correct number. The triggerguard, frame, and barrel are all numbered alike and the rear of the cylinder is numbered only "56". Timing and lockup are very strong and this revolver remains a very nice and clean example overall. (138484-17) {ANTIQUE}

The metal surfaces of this 1890-made revolver retain about 92% older reapplied blue with some high edge wear, small dings, freckling and some streaks of grayish brown. The frame and hammer also show some older reapplied blue and have taken on a mottled appearance of gray, blue and silver with some freckling and pinprick pitting under the newer finish. The black checkered hard rubber grips remain in very good plus condition with some smoothing overall and a few scuffs and handling marks. They appear to be pencil-numbered "171" and do not quite fit the frame perfectly. The frame, triggerguard, backstrap and cylinder are all matching and both double and single action function remains strong with good timing and lockup just a hair loose. This revolver still remains a very solid example overall. (138433-80) {ANTIQUE} [Paul Weisberg Collection]

Lot #1277 (Sale Order 278 of 901)

serial #2237, 32 RF, 3" round barrel with a good bore showing strong rifling and some light pitting and oxidation throughout. The barrel and cylinder of this revolver have mostly toned to a nice deep brownish gray patina with some streaks of original bright blue throughout the cylinder. There are a few dings at the rear of the cylinder and on the ejector rod along with some scattered freckling and tiny pinprick pitting. The brass frame features standard factory light foliate scrollwork and has mostly toned to rich ochre throughout. There are traces of original tarnished silver plate in the protected areas of the frame. The trigger and hammer have mostly toned to gray with some freckling throughout along with faint remnants of case colors on the hammer and fire temper blue on the trigger in the more protected areas. The smooth walnut grips remain in very good plus condition retaining a healthy amount of original varnish, a few scattered handling marks and a 1/2" hairline crack at the base of the right grip. All numbered parts appear to be matching by assembly number and the mechanism will require some mechanical attention as the hand spring is broken. When pointed down, the revolver times and locks up properly so a new hand spring would most likely bring this revolver back into working order. These revolvers employed an interesting "sliding sleeve" chamber system in a rather convoluted but ingenious circumvention of the Rollin White bored-through cylinder patent. (138525-16) {ANTIQUE}

The markings on the barrel are faint but visible and the front sight is a dovetailed wide silver cone. The brass triggerguard is not marked or serialized and is no doubt a later replacement as it is rather poorly fitted to the frame, it has mostly toned to ochre with a few small dings and handling marks. The smooth walnut grips remain in very good condition as lightly refinished long ago with some handling marks, small dings, tiny chips on the bottom edges and some dents at the base. It is difficult to discern but both grip panels appear to be pencil-numbered to the gun and the inspector cartouche is present on the left panel having softened a bit. The cylinder and barrel are matching the frame and the gun stills times and locks up very well with just a little play. (138525-19) {ANTIQUE}

Colt Officers Model Match Single Action Only Revolver

Lot #1283 (Sale Order 284 of 901)

Description Update (11/7/17): Is C&R

serial #923170, 38 Special, 6" tapered heavy barrel with an excellent bore. This beautiful 1959-made revolver may have been later converted to single action only. The metal surfaces retain about 98% high polish blue with light edge wear at the muzzle and very light turn ring on the cylinder. The barrel, cylinder and extractor star have factory rework numbers (501) and the deep lustrous blue is likely a factory refurbish. The Rampant Colt is crisp on the sideplate, which is numbered to the gun, but barrel markings are slightly soft. The hammer and lockwork are interesting, the double action sear was removed and the hammer has an internal relief cut below the rear arch making it a lightweight hammer. To prevent from over-cocking the hammer a blind screw was installed on the frame and the head modified to fit into the relief cut. The finish and workmanship is factory quality and appears original. The checkered walnut factory service style grips with silver Colt medallions rate excellent and only bear matching assembly numbers. This fifth issue revolver is equipped with factory Patridge front sight and Accro adjustable rear sight exhibiting excellent timing and lock up. A factory letter dated March 11, 2014 indicates this gun was shipped on June 9, 1959 as described above except there is no mention of it shipping as the rarely-seen single action only variation. The gun was shipped to E.K. Pote, R.D. #1, Elverson, Pennsylvania along with one other gun. The gun includes an unlabeled and un-serial numbered Colt two-piece woodgrain box that rates about good to very good with edge wear, storage marks, repairs on all corners of the cover and a couple on the base, plus the "Colt" logo on the cover has faded. There is a little mystery to the source of this revolver's single action only mode but it is still a real beauty. (88467-2) {C&R}

Smith & Wesson Single Action Third Model Revolver

Lot #1384 (Sale Order 385 of 901)

serial #14762, 38 S&W, 6" barrel with a bright near excellent bore showing a couple tiny pits here and there. This revolver shows a factory rework mark and date indicating it had work done by in May, 1937. The metal surfaces retain about 98% factory reapplied and original nickel finish with a few tiny flakes here and there on the frame and cylinder, scratches, a few tiny dings and some nickeled-over pinprick pitting at the breech, chambers and cylinder face. There is a light turn line and the barrel latch retains 96% factory blue with some light operational and high edge wear. The trigger has mostly toned to smooth gray and the triggerguard retains some smoky remains of case colors mostly toned to a pleasing gray and showing some light oxidation staining and pinprick pitting. The hammer is mostly a freckled gray with some light pinprick pitting throughout. The black checkered hard rubber grips remain in about very good condition with some softening and smoothing of the edges and points along with a few small dings. The right grip is numbered 79364 and is a little shy of the frame. The cylinder and frame are matching and the barrel and latch are un-numbered. The barrel markings are crisp and it is very likely that a double action model barrel was installed by the factory when it was sent back in 1937; the cylinder and frame were probably re-nickeled as well at that point. Timing remains very solid with lockup just a hair loose and this revolver is still a very attractive example overall. (138487-49) {C&R}

Colt Model 1877 Lightning Double Action Revolver

Lot #1385 (Sale Order 386 of 901)

serial #37362, 38 Colt, 2 1/2" barrel with a very good bore showing some a few small pinprick pits and frosting throughout. The metal surfaces of this 1882-made revolver are a mix of older reapplied and original blue with the triggerguard and backstrap retaining about 55% original thinning blue showing high edge wear, scratches, small dings, freckling and straps worn to gunmetal. The screw heads show some minor slot damage but many of them still retain some hint of fire temper blue. The backs of the hammer and trigger also retain healthy amounts of vibrant fire temper blue with the remainder worn to freckled gunmetal. The barrel, cylinder, frame and axis pin show remains of older reapplied blue mostly toned to smooth grayish brown throughout with some high edge wear, lightly cleaned pinprick pitting, small scratches and freckling. The markings have softened a little but still remain remarkably crisp, most notably the etched "COLT D.A. 38" on the left side of the barrel. The black checkered hard rubber grips are un-numbered and most likely replacements as they fit a little proud of the frame. Otherwise they remain in very good plus condition with some very minor softening, handling marks and a thin 3/4" hairline crack at the top edge of the left panel. The triggerguard, backstrap and frame are all matching. The cylinder is marked with British proofs in the flutes and is stamped with a wide assortment of numbers at its rear, "74272375" and the barrel address does not include the London addition. Despite this anomaly, the revolver still times and locks up very well in both single and double action. Overall an interesting example of a "Sheriff's Model" Lightning. (138527-50) (ANTIQUE)

The barrel markings remain crisp and clear. The trigger, hammer and hammer pin retain about 90% brilliant fire temper blue with some light high edge wear, minor freckling and some toning to gray. The smooth walnut grips retain a healthy amount of original varnish with some scattered flaking, small dings, scratches and handling marks. There are some tiny cracks and beginnings of small chips around the left escutcheon and the screw head is stuck, preventing easy removal of the grip panels. The peculiar combination breechblock/hammer mechanism still functions very well with a crisp hammer at both full and half cock and the barrel and frame are matching. A really fine example with some particularly stunning fire temper blue. (138502-29) {ANTIQUE}

U.S. Regulation Colt Dragoon Holster by E. Gaylord

Lot #1387 (Sale Order 388 of 901)

This Dragoon holster remains in about very good overall condition with crackling of the black finish, scuffs, scratches, some minor staining and handling marks throughout. The finish on the flap has mostly flaked away to brown which shows two small repaired tears at either end. One repair is still holding firm and the other has broken free. Most of the stitching is still very strong although the forward portion of the flap seam shows an older glue repair. All of the brass hardware is intact with some minor verdigris present. The leather is still relatively soft overall and the "E. GAYLORD" marking is present but just barely visible. A very nice overall example of a scarce original Dragoon holster. (138426-15A)

The grips are of nicely aged antique ivory which show crackling and fine grain throughout. The left panel has taken on a darker patina than the right and they appear to be numbered on the inside but it is illegible. All parts are matching except for the wedge (0044) and timing and lockup remain solid. An well-used honest example featuring very nice grips. (138426-13) {ANTIQUE}

The latch screw is a more modern replacement and a few of the sideplate screws may also be later replacements.

This work was certainly done long ago almost as if it was an attempt to convert it to rimfire but the firing pin is undoubtedly still well centered. The barrel, cylinder and latch are all numbered "V296". The gun wears un-numbered antique ivory grips with a rich dark patina showing substantial age crackling throughout. They are chipped at the edges, around the escutcheons and are a little shy of the frame overall. Barrel-to-frame fit shows a little play, the ejector gets hung up every now and then and the mechanism will require some mechanical attention as the cylinder stop does not fully engage and half cock is gone. The gun still times well and the hammer is robust at full cock. Overall a salty and well-worn example with plenty of character. (138315-235LS6-22) {ANTIQUE} [Lewis T. Steadman Collection]

There is a 3" drying crack at the toe and a couple small chips missing along the sharp edges of the forearm, the wrist is lightly checkered. The locks function mechanically for the most part, the right lock not holding on half-cock and what is likely the original ramrod is present.

Pair of Mediterranean Ball Butt Flintlock Pistols with Kuburluk

Lot #1400 (Sale Order 401 of 901)

.60 cal, 10 3/4" barrels with oxidized bores. These are interesting pistols, clearly stocked and made by the same hand at the same time, but utilizing different components. Both barrels and locks are from different arms. One barrel shows British proofs on its left side, the other is part octagon part round with dual medials and raised relief engraving at the rear near the breech. The plain-barreled pistol has a rather English-looking lock with swan-neck cock, bridled frizzen and the plate is marked "Rossi". The engraved barrel gun has a lock which is unmarked but for loose scroll, much of which is lost to the oxidation and the years, showing a semi-fancy bridled frizzen and frizzen tail. All of the iron surfaces are a dull oxidized brown patina showing light pitting, many spots more moderate on the fancier gun. Both arms feature Mediterranean hardwood stocks with pronounced ball butts. They have overall silver wire and lobed silver inlays in geometric and floral patterns. There may be a few spots were the wire or inlays are coming out and both pistols show some glued repairs to shrinkage or cracks over the years. One of the locks is functional, the other will not budge. These pistols ride in what is likely their original Kuburluk, or holster. The suspension strap is no longer present but the holster remains in about very good condition. The outer kidskin is slightly dry and flaking somewhat with the seam stitching mostly intact. The face of the Kuburluk shows embroidered floral decoration and a prominent center scroll flourish. The interior lining is moderately dried and flaking and likely could use some restoration. Overall a rather pleasing set of ball butt pistols with original holster. (38433-28) {ANTIQUE} [Paul Weisberg Collection]

Very Rare Buffalo Bill Souvenir Revolver and Souvenir Pamphlet from His Wild West Show

Lot #1401 (Sale Order 402 of 901)

.22 RF, 2 1/2" barrel with a lightly oxidized bore. Purported by the consignor to be a souvenir item from Bill's Wild West Show, this little revolver retains about 98% original nickel with excellent blue on the hammer, trigger, and cylinder stop. The cylinder itself shows flaking finish and spots of very light oxidation. The smooth walnut grips rate excellent with all their original varnish. The arm comes in its original box which is green-paper covered, the lid imprinted "Buffalo Bill/Revolver/22 Calibre" an image of Mr. Cody has been glued inside the lid many years ago. The box itself rates very good plus showing light scuffs and a couple corner separations. These arms were purportedly made by E.L. & J. Dickinson of Springfield Massachusetts. The arm is manufactured without a hand and the cylinder stop is not automatic. One must depress the cylinder stop and rotate the cylinder manually to bring a fresh cartridge and chamber beneath the firing pin. Also included with the lot is a souvenir program entitled "Buffalo Bill's Wild West". This is a paper pulp official program, roughly 80 pages long, all in French. The entire program rates about very good overall and is full of photographs and descriptions of what patrons of the show would see and of course commentary on Cody's life. The advertising sponsors on the interior are primarily French however there are some amusing American sponsors whose ads are now in French, the "Chapeau Stetson" Stetson's hat ad as well as "Revolvers Iver Johnson" are somewhat amusing. There are some tears along the spine and some scuffs on the cover but the interior seems undamaged. A neat collection of Buffalo Bill memorabilia overall.

This shotgun features a bead front sight, double triggers and has the very attractive "circle" hammers which lay flat and out of the line of sight when cocked. (218448-3) {C&R}

Charles Parker Company No. 200 Dual-Wheel Coffee Grinder

Lot #1570 (Sale Order 571 of 901)

This is the No. 200 size bench-top coffee grinder made by the Charles Parker Co. of Meriden Connecticut. The grinder itself remains in very nice condition retaining nearly all the original red paint on the body and both wheels and periphery of the base. The top of the grinder and rotating hopper cover have faded and flaked mostly to the dark gray underlying metal with strong traces of the original red paint. Both wheels, axle collars and the top portion of the base show very good original forest green paint, the gold paint which accented the exterior of the wheels has worn from the years. The turned hardwood handle rates about very good, showing a synthetic repair to about one third of the bulbous portion of the knob; it is unobtrusive and nicely stained. The top knob on the hopper cover has been replaced with a small cast brass American Eagle which, while not original, is very attractive, and something Parker should have done in the first place (it was indeed present on the large floor-size dual-wheel grinders). The gold leaf accenting scroll panels are only partially present on the lower portion of the body and have flaked away from the upper portion at the hopper. Both wheels turn easily, the interior gears are no longer present but this is no matter (unless you were going to grind coffee) as the unit presents very nicely as it sits. Overall height from bottom of base to tip of Eagle is about 14 1/4" with a maximum width of about 9", each wheel about 9" in diameter. The unit sits on what is likely its original beveled corner oak base which shows some minor chipping and scuffs from the years, especially at the corners, with two antique drilled and countersunk holes where it was mounted to a countertop. Really a very nice example for the gun room or den and a must-have for any serious collector of Parker arms and accoutrements. (38433-106)[Paul Weisberg Collection]

Antique Will & Finck San Francisco Lime Squeezer

Lot #1571 (Sale Order 572 of 901)

This is a super antique rosewood lime squeezer marked by famous San Francisco retailer Will & Finck, better known for their famous high quality Bowie knives and cutlery. The heavy silver-plated brass hinge at the head is decoratively cut and engraved, retaining nearly all its original silver plate, roughly 97% remaining, the only real loss on the edges. The face of the hinge is neatly marked: "Will & Finck/ S. F. CAL" and the hinge remains tight and fully operational. The rosewood legs show light wear but with nearly all their original varnish, with the expected very minor dings and handling marks from the years. The interior of the press is neatly, sharply carved in a pine-tree pattern into-which the juice of the lime slice flows and then drips out the bottom of the press. Established in 1863 in San Francisco, these famous cutlers flourished during the gold rush years, but remained in business well after, in the 1920's manufacturing gambling equipment and barware. Overall a very interesting piece of antique barware from this famous manufacturer-retailer, in a very fine state of condition. (38433-86) [Paul Weisberg Collection]

Antique New York State Powderhorn

Lot #1572 (Sale Order 573 of 901)

This 11 1/2" horn features a somewhat flat softwood plug retained with seven square iron brads. The plug shows trace and remnants of its original varnish and has a vacant hole wear a hanger loop or ring was present, it is incise carved "G. Swa". The body of the horn is a dull yellow-cream fading to a darker chocolate brown and a darker gray-brown at the nozzle. The body of the horn has been lightly reduced its full-length to a medial near the nozzle; the nozzle itself faceted septagonally. The body is neatly engraved near overall and has the previous owners name and the date around the circumference of the base "G Swartwout Sept. 9, 1820". There is a rather nice a depiction of a three-masted sailing vessel flying the American flag, an interesting depiction of two individuals beneath an American flag flying atop a pole, looking very much like it should be a state emblem however it does not match any current examples extant (the closest in use today would very loosely be North Carolina's state seal). Patriotic inscriptions include "Immortality to Washington" and "Success to the American Eagle Who with an Air of Disdain Spit on the Crown of Great Britain", beneath-which is a spread-winged American Eagle and a depiction of the British Crown. Very likely engraved at a much later date, an additional name can be read "John F Hauptman born: 12 19", somewhat lighter than the rest of the engraving. The Swartwout's were a very prominent, very early Rockland County New York family, with roots as far back as 1660, there are a number who served in the American Revolutionary War (roughly about 19 we can find), this fellow is likely one of the "George's" and no doubt carved this patriotic horn as he was brought up in a very dutiful family who served their country in that great conflict and those that followed. His grandfather or perhaps great-grandfather was a general in the Continental Army and grandfather or uncle was an officer during the War of 1812. Interestingly there was a John Foster Hauptman born in 1819 in Rockland County New York, this rather makes sense with the "12 19" engraved on the horn, being December of that year. Diligent research could no doubt prove a connection between the two men. A very nicely carved patriotic horn from this prominent empire state family. (38433-133) [Paul Weisberg Collection]

Japanese Type 26 Double Action Revolver by Tokyo Army Arsenal

Lot #1631 (Sale Order 632 of 901)

serial #54755, 9mm Japanese Revolver, 4 3/4" barrel with a bright very good bore showing a few small patches of oxidation. The metal surfaces of this late production revolver retain about 40% reapplied black paint over a gray phosphate finish with some minor dings and a few patches of pinprick pitting underneath the newer finish. The checkered Asian hardwood grips remain in very good overall condition with worn finish, some small chips around the edges and points, a tiny crack at the bottom of the right panel and scattered handling marks. This revolver was most likely arsenal repaired at some point as its parts appear to be a mix of assembly numbers and serial numbers. The frame, barrel and cylinder all show assembly number "34" and the other interior parts are a mix of numbers, the lever and hammer matching by number "2384". It is possible this revolver also saw service outside of the Japanese military as the black paint and phosphate finish is not consistent with Japanese arsenal refurbishment. Timing is still good but lockup is loose overall. The revolver does include an original brown leather clamshell holster with strong maker markings on the interior flap, some minor staining, scuff marks and verdigris on the brass hardware. Some information about the revolver has been written in white grease pencil on the flap that will likely clean up. (138524-12) {C&R}

Frame-to-barrel fit is a little loose, some metal has been relieved just below the cylinder arbor and the wedge is loose. Timing and lockup are in need of some mechanical attention as the cylinder does not usually advance and the hammer does not hold at full cock. A well-worn but honest example overall.

Case Replica V-42 First Special Service Force Knife Set

This two knife set was produced by Case in the 90's to commemorate the original V-42 made in the 1940's for a group rough and tough hand-picked individuals who became the First Special Service Force, better known by the Nazis as the "Devil's Brigade". Both knives measure 12 1/2" overall with 7 1/4" double edge blades, leather handles and skull crusher pommels.

It was said that soldiers serving at that time made the tip slightly blunt so that it would not get stuck in bone after stabbing and also reduce wear on the leather sheath. The knives are housed in a hinged walnut presentation case with embossed Special Service Force logo on lid and a black baize interior with red, white and blue ribbons and inlaid facsimile red "Devil's Brigade" arrowhead patch. A first choice Certificate of Authenticity is also included. Overall, this is an awesome dagger set.

Included is the original box that is correctly end-labeled and numbered to the gun, stick-on factory hard rubber recoil pad, manual and paperwork. Its more manageable size when folded made this a favorite of plainclothes officers but it will make a handy gun for home defense. (88472-16) {MODERN}

serial #5379, 41 RF, 2 1/2" barrel with a very good bore having scattered pitting and oxidation still with good rifling. The metal surfaces are an overall brown and gray with scattered patches of fine oxidation and the lightly scroll-engraved iron frame perhaps a little brighter gray. The checkered walnut grips rate about very good with light handling marks, edge wear, perhaps 60% original varnish remaining and are both pencil-numbered to the pistol.

E.A. Prescott Pocket Revolver

Lot #1887 (Sale Order 888 of 901)

serial #887, 22 RF, 2 3/8" round barrel with a good bore showing pitting and oxidation but evident traces of rifling still visible. The barrel retains about 80% original flaking nickel with fine oxidation staining, the exposed metal fading to pale gray and brown. The frame retains about 70% flaking original nickel with scattered light scratches and impact marks, the exposed brass surfaces having a tarnished ocher patina. The plain walnut birdshead grips rate about very good still retaining much original varnish with light handling marks and are both stamp-numbered to the gun. The base pin no longer locks in place but the cylinder still advances properly. A good example of these seldom encountered pocket revolvers. (58448-1) {ANTIQUE}

Mortimer Sidelever Double Hammergun

Lot #1888 (Sale Order 889 of 901)

12 ga., 26 1/2" barrels choked improved cylinder and cylinder with mostly very good plus bores having some scattered sparse pitting and oxidation.

Lockup is tight, however there is a glimpse of light between the breech face and standing breech. The length of pull to the steel buttplate is 14 1/4" with drops of 2 1/16" and 3 3/8". (58433-13) {C&R}

Lot #1889 (Sale Order 890 of 901)

serial #10788, .32 teat fire, 3 1/4" round barrel with an about very good lightly oxidized bore still showing good rifling. The barrel, cylinder and hammer are all a pale gunmetal gray patina with nice scroll engraving on the cylinder and barrel. The brass frame has a pleasing ocher patina with similar scroll on a punch-dot background. The walnut grips rate very good with minor handling marks under what may be a little added varnish and are assembly-numbered to the gun on their interior. Barrel-to-frame fit seems tight and this example is made with the sliding gate and no hook-style extractor. (58448-12) {ANTIQUE}

Ethan Allen 32 Deringer

Lot #1890 (Sale Order 891 of 901)

serial #4429, 32RF, 2 7/8" part round part octagon barrel with an oxidized bore showing traces of rifling. The metal surfaces are a brown-gray patina with sparse fine pitting, oxidation and traces of original blue in protected areas. The birdshead walnut grips rate good with light handling marks, a thin vertical crack along the interior of the left panel and are both stamp-numbered to the gun, the bushing is loose in the right panel prohibiting the grips from tightening properly. The barrel is numbered to the frame, lockup has become loose over the years. A good, rare 32 deringer. (58448-38) {ANTIQUE}

U.S. Model 1879 Trapdoor Rifle by Springfield Armory

There is a light spraying of very fine white paint on the wood and metal. Rifle is equipped with a proper front sight and Buffington rear sight, part of the rear sight notch is missing. What appears to be an original slotted button-tip cleaning rod and socket bayonet without scabbard are included. The bayonet shows scattered oxidation and an electric pencil-engraved Social Security number on the rear of the face flute matching the one on the rifle. A good Trapdoor for the wall or mantle. (58445-23) {ANTIQUE}

Belgian Flintlock Musket Manufactured for The African Market

Lot #1892 (Sale Order 893 of 901)

915 (21.7 mm) cal., 33 5/8" round barrel with octagonal breech having a good lightly oxidized bore. This is a rather rudimentary period-manufactured musket crafted from an assortment of parts that don't necessarily fit or seat properly. The metal surfaces are an overall brown and gray patina with scattered tool marks and surface oxidation and pitting mainly on the lock, triggerguard and buttplate and a small dent in the rear tang in front of the screw. There is an "E /LG" Belgian proof on the left barrel flat, the right flat is marked with two small proofs and the lockplate is marked with a lightly fading insect in circle with a "G" on the left wing and an "L" on the right wing. The walnut stock rates very good with light handling marks, a few tiny gaps along some of the metal edges and a flaking varnish finish. The iron barrel bands and Schuetzen-style buttplate do not seat properly against the wood and the lockplate screws protrude extensively past the plate. The lock remains strong and functions mechanically and a button-tip iron ramrod is present. (58158-12) {ANTIQUE}

Sharps Model 3C Pepperbox Pistol

Lot #1893 (Sale Order 894 of 901)

serial #2131, 30 RF, 2 1/2" four-barrel cluster with good bores showing overall pitting and oxidation but still good rifling. The barrels bear a smoky brown patina with some sparse very fine oxidation while the frame is an overall mottled gray and brown with some sparse fine oxidation and a couple tiny impact marks. The frame has two-line "C. SHARPS PATENT / JAN. 25, 1859" marking. The un-numbered smooth rosewood birdshead grips rate very good with light handling marks, still retaining much original varnish. The barrels are numbered to the frame, the action is in need of mechanical attention as the hammer does not stay cocked. (58433-43) {ANTIQUE} [Paul Weisberg Collection]

German DSM-34 Bolt Action Rifle by Mauser Oberndorf

Lot #1894 (Sale Order 895 of 901)

serial #31726, 22 LR, 25 1/2" barrel with a very good plus bore that has a few light pits near muzzle. The metal surfaces of this Mauser banner-marked rifle retain 75-80% original blue with a few small dings on the rear band, scattered freckling and fading to brown. The walnut stock rates very good with an added oil finish, a couple areas showing some fiber remnants, scattered dings and handling marks. There is a neatly done 1 1/4" cut beneath the ejection port and for what purpose this was done remains unknown. The bolt and barrel are matching to the receiver and there is a small import marking on the underside of the barrel. A very good example of these Mauser small bore rifles. (208413-47) {C&R}

The walnut stocks rate very good plus with the butt having an added varnish, a few scattered dings and handling marks. The rifle is sighted with a tang-mounted peep rear sight, a sporting rear sight and a bead front sight. A very good example of these Winchester rimfire rifles that will likely perform well at the range. (208423-5) {C&R}

The carbine is equipped with a grooved steel buttplate, a sporting rear sight and a gold bead front sight. A very fine 1894 carbine. (208443-45) {C&R}

German DSM-34 Bolt Action Rifle by Walther

Lot #1897 (Sale Order 898 of 901)

serial #60102, 22 LR, 25 1/2" barrel with a bright excellent bore. The metal surfaces retain 97-98% of a reapplied blue finish with a few scattered small spots of blued-over pitting and a few light handling marks. The walnut stock rates very good with an added oil finish, scattered dings, handling marks, stain spots and light scratches. The barrel is matching to the receiver but there do not appear to be any other serialized parts. There is a small import mark on the underside of barrel along with nitro proofs and pre-war German proofs on the receiver. A good entry-level example of these interesting Nazi era rimfire rifles. (208413-51) {C&R}

Whitney-Howard Single Shot Lever Action Rifle

Lot #1898 (Sale Order 899 of 901)

serial #881C, 41 RF, 24" barrel with a good bore showing strong rifling, some light oxidation and frosting throughout. The metal surfaces of this interesting rifle have mostly toned to dull gray with some light oxidation staining, freckling and patches of lightly cleaned old pitting throughout. The markings are soft but present, a number of the screw heads show some light slot damage, the rear sight is a replacement and there is an added metal plate at the upper tang. The straight grip walnut buttstock remains in about very good overall condition as perhaps lightly refinished long ago and is just a little shy of the frame. It shows a number of small dings, scratches, tiny chips and light staining. The mechanism will require some mechanical attention as the trigger is not functional although the firing pin appears to be intact, the extractors are present and the lever stays secured. A good representative example overall or a nice project for the seasoned tinkerer. (138448-36) {ANTIQUE}

Belgian Underlever Double Hammer Shotgun by J. Cooper

Lot #1899 (Sale Order 900 of 901)

serial #36810, 8 gauge, 34" Damascus barrels with bright pitted bores. The metal surfaces have toned to brown with a scattering of oxidation blemishes, pitting and handling marks. The one-piece buttstock rates about good with scattered light dents, dings, scratches and other handling wear plus there is a single crack running from the left lock to the tang, from the right lock to the tang and from the lower right lock to the stnding breech. The semi-pistol grip stock is checkered around the wrist and has a length of pull of 14". The locks are marked "J. COOPER" and the bottom of the barrels is marked "L J MEURICE" (Louis Joseph Meurice) and is Belgian proofed. At 12.8 pounds this is a lot of shotgun and probably saw its heyday during the market hunting years. (88433-12) {ANTIQUE} [Paul Weisberg Collection]

Colt Frontier Six-Shooter Revolver

Lot #1900 (Sale Order 901 of 901)

serial #107962, 44-40 W.C.F., 5 1/8" cut barrel with a frosted bore. This salty old Six-Shooter was made in 1884 and shows some honest use. All the metal surfaces are an even brown with some areas of pitting and assorted light handling marks. The smooth one-piece walnut factory grips rate good as lightly refinished with scattered dents, dings and scuffs and the metal is proud of the wood, especially around the toe and heel. The barrel, cylinder and all other parts are correctly numbered to the gun but the numbers on the grips are too worn to read. The trigger is a later replacement and the cylinder stop is missing. The gun still times but obviously cannot lock up and the half-cock notch no longer functions. To replace the front sight after the barrel was shortened a dovetail was cut, a base installed and a silver blade mounted into the base. Most of the markings on the barrel and frame are strong but there is no trace of the "Frontier Six-Shooter" marking on the side of the barrel. This would be a good project gun or just a nice piece of "ole west" memorabilia. (88514-4) {ANTIQUE}
