Description
A Rare Cased Morton Pinfire Revolver This Irish made Morton revolver is housed in a beautiful mahogany case which includes the cleaning rod and tools in the blue felt-lined compartments. The pinfire revolvers originated in France and incorporated a design where the hammer strikes the cartridge at a right angle causing a charge to detonate and fire the round. W. Morton and Son were makers of fine firearms and were located at 2 Ellen Street in Limerick, Ireland. This double-action six-shot revolver retains 80% of its bluing and has a nickel hammer and trigger which folds up toward the barrel. The front sight is missing, however, this revolver is an attractive display piece.Auction Info
