Product Overview
The 1860 Army revolver was adopted as US government ordnance because of its lighter weight, improved balance, and superior ballistics. This 6-shot percussion revolver became very popular with mounted troops and went on to be the issued sidearm for the US Army for many years. The 1860 army snub nose model features a case hardened steel frame, shoulder stock frame cuts and screws, round barrel, steel backstrap and brass triggerguard, and an Army size walnut grip. A conversion cylinder is available for this model that is a drop-in conversion to smokeless ammunition.
