Leech & Rigdon Confederate Revolver,
.36 caliber, 7-1/2" round barrel,
percussion, steel frame, beech,
used, by High Standard

Part Number:	AAW-531
Availability:

This replica percussion revolver is known as the Leech & Rigdon Confederate revolver. Based on the Colt 1851 Navy revolver, Leech and Rigdon manufactured an estimated 1500 revolvers for the Confederacy with the vast majority manufactured in Greensboro, Georgia. This .36 caliber revolver is assembled with a French gray steel frame, blued cylinder and 7-1/2" round barrel, brass triggerguard and backstrap, and fitted with beech grips. Used, this Confederate revolver has a few marks on the cylinder from the latch, and wedge key from disassembly. It appears to be very well maintained with a bright bore.

The .36 caliber, or "Navy caliber" barrel is turned round from the muzzle in Souther revolver fashion. A pointed brass bead front sight is mounted near the muzzle. A notch in the hammer, serves as a rear sight. The top flat at the breech is marked Leech & Rigdon C.S.A.. The left side of the barrel is marked High Standard Hamden CT USA above the wedge key. The wedge key shows a few small marks from disassembly.

Disassembly for cleaning is easy. Drive the wedge key out of the barrel, using our brass wedge key punch. Slide off the barrel, and cylinder. Wipe down the frame and grip, but avoid disassembly of the action. It is wise to completely strip and clean the action about once per year, using a well fitted screwdriver, made to fit the small screws. Remove the nipples with our #NW-140 wrench, and wash the barrel, nipples, and cylinder with a bottle brush, in hot soapy water. Dry the parts with a cloth, or rinse them in boiling water, and apply oil. Apply a touch of Birchwood Casey's Choke Tube Lubricant to the threads of the nipples, before re-installing them. This anti-seize will prevent the nipples from becoming stuck due to powder fouling.

This Leech & Rigdon Confederate revolver has a lightly used appearance with a few marks on the cylinder and the wedge key. With a bright bore, it will be a joy to shoot!
