A Century of Antique Gun Values 7 by Greg Martin
A CENTURY OF ANTIQUE GUN VALUES 7 BY GREG MartiN Greg Martin and S.P. Fjestad shown honoring the late R.L. Wilson at an Antique Arms Show in Las Vegas. n April 12, 1958, James E. Serven addressed the American relatively favorable buying opportunities may well be present and Society of Arms Collectors at the Adolphus Hotel in Dallas, unrecognized today.” Serven followed up by presenting an interesting OTexas. His presentation was titled “Are Antique Guns a Good graph to his audience, listing 16 classifications of antique firearms by Investment?” I discovered his speech among the copious books and value and their ranking, with Colt firearms being the leaders in catalogues I had accumulated in years of collecting. It was not the title appreciation due to their popularity. Colts would continue to hold this that first caught my attention, because I felt that I already knew the exalted position for the next fifty-plus years, with Winchesters eventually answer, but the year it was presented. The 1950s were a decade that I reaching parity. could relate to. This is when my collecting adventures began amid surging While Serven’s investment calculations comparing gun values with interest in antique guns and sage warnings that prices were too high. conventional financial instruments, such as real estate, were of some 1958 was the midpoint to where we are today, and the vantage point merit, his identification of the subtle changes in gun values influenced from where Serven would answer his own question.

Deadlands Armory—Revolvers.”
Rifles Part III. Magazines In Motion: Revolvers, Turrets, & Harmonicas Revolving Magazines The nineteenth century was a time of great mechanical innovation, marked by thousands of inventive creators seeking patents for all manner of curiously-engineered devices. Firearms were no exception, and a glance at any “weird weapons” collection reveals dozens of oddities, often stamped between 1820–1860. Many of these utilized some form of revolving magazine, whether a cylinder, a cluster of barrels, a turret, or some form of rotary chain. This introduction offers a short history of the revolver, followed by profiles for the more unique, popular, or interesting repeaters that use some form of moving magazine. A more detailed history of revolvers and the Colt patent is found in “Deadlands Armory—Revolvers.” Pepperbox Guns The general mechanism of a revolving magazine evolved from the “pepperbox” gun of the early nineteenth century. A pepperbox gun features a cluster of smooth-bore barrels which are rotated into position and fired individually. Predating the advent of the cartridge, pepperbox guns are muzzle-loaded, and require a separate primer charge for each barrel. Pepperbox guns began fading in popularity before the Civil War, replaced by the more efficient percussion revolver. The Percussion Revolver One of the most significant innovations in firearm design, a revolver features a cylindrical magazine that holds each round in an individual chamber. The first modern revolver was designed by Elisha Haydon Collier in 1814, and was a self-priming flintlock with a manually- rotated cylindrical magazine. Having been exposed to the Collier revolver during a voyage abroad, Samuel Colt made the critical innovation that earned him one of the century’s most famous patents—a revolving cylinder that was mechanically rotated. -
Firearms Evidence Collection Procedures
FIREARMS EVIDENCE COLLECTION PROCEDURES INTRODUCTION: Firearms evidence is usually encountered in crimes against persons such as homicide, assault and robbery; but may also be found in other crimes such as burglary, rape, and narcotics violations. While comparisons of bullets and cartridge cases to specific firearms are the most common examinations requested, other examinations are possible such as: distance determinations based on powder residue or shot spread; examination of firearms for functioning or modification; sequence of shots fired and trajectories; list of possible weapons used; serial number restoration and ownership tracing. Evidence of firing or handling a firearm may be detected through the analysis of gunshot residue collected from a persons hands or other body surfaces. (see PEB 15 12/90). EVIDENCE FIREARMS-HANDLING AND SAFETY: The location and condition of firearms and related evidence at a crime scene should be diagramed and photographed before recovering and securing. Although physical evidence is important, safety must be the first consideration. Each situation should be evaluated before deciding to unload an evidence firearm. (Caution, treat a firearm at all times as if it were loaded). If the weapon is a type that can be safely transported in a loaded condition, this can be done. However, depending on the circumstances it may be unnecessary or unwise to transport a loaded firearm. It should then be unloaded, with care taken to preserve all types of possible evidence. This evidence includes fingerprints, blood, hair or fibers, cylinder "halos", and debris in the barrel and/or cylinder. The weapon should be handled on those areas least likely to retain latent fingerprints such as knurled or checkered areas. -

Thomas K. Bacon - The Arms and The Man LowelIJ. Wagner BACON MANUFACTURING COMPANY PRODUCTION Bacon Manufacturing Company's first production model appears to have been the "Excelsior" percus- sion revolver. This octagon barrel, removable side plate revolver was nearly identical to the Manhattan percus- sion revolver. Gruler and Rebetey were involved with Bacon's production of a percussion revolver similar to the Manhattan revolver. In 1859, they attempted to patent the removable side plate feature of the Man- hattan revolver, but this attempt was rejected by the patent ofice. Therefore, Thomas Bacon and his new company was free to produce the Excelsior model, which was made between 1859 and 1862 or 1863. Total production appears to have been less than 1000 after exceeding the four-digit serial numbers. This could guns. have been for ease of numbering internal parts of guns in The Excelsior model can be found with four dif- manufacture. ferent barrel markings, which include the large and Most of the early second model revolvers have the small one line address, the very small two line Bacon standard rose vine engraving.
