This is a "Starr Patent Arms" .44 Cal. single action revolver, from the Civil War Era. It belonged to My Grandfather, & His Father before Him. The date on the side of the frame is; "Jan. 15th. 1856" When I was younger, My Grandfather & I shot it regularly. When He passed away in 1973, I inherited it. It has an amazing trigger pull ! Like breaking glass, @ 2 1/2#.
It only comes out of the safe occasionally, to be cleaned, oiled, & put back again. I wouldn't part with it, but no longer wish to fire it. Some Day maybe My Son will !
