New York circa 1830-1850. 6 barrel cluster with raised ribs, in the desirable Dragoon sized .36 caliber. Ring trigger with underhammer functions in double action only. Relief cut out on right side of frame for capping. Typical floral scroll engraving on frame, with a spray down the backstrap. 2 piece ivory grips with a single screw through a central escutcheon. CONDITION: Barrel cluster retains the majority of the original bluing, with areas of browning coming up throughout and towards muzzles; some silvering to high edges. Frame has traces of blued finish, most in protected areas, with sharp engraving. Grips with some handling marks and a crack on left scale. Mechanically fine, bores are very good with one chamber still loaded. A better example than typically encountered.
