Well here's the crown jewel for me. Unfortunately I don't have a better picture at the moment.

My wife's ancestor: Moses A Armstrong of the Tennessee volunteer infantry 6th regiment B company used this 1844 Springfield in service of the Union army in the civil war.

Not me . . . as I mentioned, I have zero in the family heirloom department, gun-wise.

So in that case I'm calling dibs on everything you own since you won't be passing down any.

Damn, I was wondering how long it would take someone to claim them....

OK, I'll get it written up and notarized. PM me your full name, including middle, please. Thanks man.

AFAIK, that is a Colt Model 1851 Navy Percussion Revolver. Still doing research on it, but it seems that is an early date, real deal, non-repro Colt.
