Griswold and Gunnison Revolver Replica

Meet the Griswold and Gunnison Revolver Replica, a vintage reminder of the era when the United States were torn in two during the American Civil War.

Historical Confederate Craftsmanship

Made from a zinc alloy, this American revolver is a reproduction of the Griswold & Gunnison Colt 1851, a popular revolver used by the Confederate States during the American Civil War. Griswold & Gunnison were weapons manufacturers that operated out of Macon, Georgia, supplying the Confederacy with many revolvers during the war. With a brass finish and a backward-angled grip, this Southern pistol has a distinctive, historical personality inspired by the Civil War.

This pistol is completely decorative, meaning it cannot fire ammunition of any kind. Though it does have a realistic firing mechanism and a rotating cylinder, it should not be excessively dry-fired.

All along the barrel, cylinder, and the hammer, this historical Civil War revolver has an antiqued grey finish. This creates a weathered, vintage finish. At the back, the loading gate, the frame, and the trigger guard have a brass finish. The brown, wooden grip has a brass spacer for added detail. Complemented by the golden finish of brass, the natural wood grain of the grip gives this revolver a rustic look. The cylinder can hold up to six dummy rounds. The revolver even has a loading lever, located underneath the barrel, for added historical accuracy.
