Brief info on the COLT 18949 Pocker Colt Model 1849 Pocket Revolver The Pocket Model is smaller than none revolvers. The trigger guard is slightly oversized to accept a normal finger, but the grip is a bit petite for most folks. However, this made the gun concealable, and that was the point. The Model 1849 Pocket Revolver, a replacement for the Baby Dragoon, was the most widely produced of any Colt percussion pistol. Nearly 340,000 were manufactured during a 23-year production run that ended in 1873. Although most production took place in Colt's Hartford factory, approximately 11,000 were made in London. These pistols were available with octagonal barrels ranging between 3 and 6 inches in length. The 1849 Pocket Model featured a brass frame, trigger guard, and a latched loading lever. One common but potentially apocryphal application was that Civil War officers purportedly kept the little guns handy to dissuade their Army surgeons from removing limbs unnecessarily.
