This is a rare opportunity to acquire an ORIGINAL CIVIL WAR 1861 Colt Navy with its ORIGINAL holster rig and accessories. This outfit was captured from a Union Officer by a member of Hood's Brigade and used for the remainder of the war by this Confederate soldier. Purchased from his Greatgrandson in Del Rio, Texas in 1961. An AFFIDAVIT relating these facts will be supplied with purchase. Serial number 208xx, manufactured in 1864. The leather holster, belt, and cartridge box show wonderful hand repairs from their period of use. The belt was a civilian belt with hand sewn saber loops. The set includes a hand carved, bamboo powder measure, a cap box with caps, a fine powder bag with hand carved ivory or bone top which still contains powder and several lead balls which appear to have been hammered round. The revolver is in excellent working condition with all matching numbers. There is approximately 20% of blue finish remaining and traces of cylinder scene. The grips are smooth with no chips or cracks. An unbelievable set which has been together since the Civil War. Additional photos of actual revolver on request.
