1851 Brass Frame Confederate Griswold & Gunnison 7.5" .36

This six-shot.36 caliber revolver was made under contract to the Confederate government. It is a brass framed copy of the Colt 1851 Navy revolver. Connecticut Yankee Samuel Griswold set up a cotton gin factory in Georgia in 1830. The village of Griswoldville grew around the factory. In 1862, Griswold produced pikes for volunteers from the state of Georgia. The factory soon began producing revolvers for the Confederacy. No other Confederate factory produced more revolvers than Griswold & Gunnison. Griswoldville was the first town burned by Sherman's troops on his march to the sea. This 1851 navy model features a brass frame, blued parts, brass backstrap and triggerguard, round barrel, and a walnut navy size grip.
