Brief info on the COLT 51Navy Colt Model 1851 Navy Revolver In 1850, Colt began manufacturing a .36 caliber, 6-shot revolver that would continue to be produced for the next twenty-three years - the Colt Model 1851 Navy Revolver. During that span, 215, 348 pistols were produced in Hartford, Connecticut and 42,000 were produced in London, England, a total production of more than a quarter of a million revolvers!. This model was carried by Robert E. Lee as the Confederate Commanding General. Colt Navy Revolvers were the favourite sidearms of dozens of historical figures during it's production life, including John Singleton Mosby, Wild Bill Hichcock as the Sheriff of Abilene and Buffalo Bill Cody. Numerous variations of the Navy revolver exist, and most of today's reproductions copy the design of the Second and Third Model Colt Navy Revolver. The second Model had a small, round trigger guard, and the third had a larger round trigger guard.
