Used Whitney-Beals Patent Pocket Revolver, also know as the "Walking Beam Pocket Revolver"; manufactured circa 1854 to late 1860's. Standard model, seven-shot, .31 caliber percussion; 4" barrel. Walnut grips.
These guns are significant in firearms curiosa if not firearms evolution in that it skirts every Colt patent. It does not employ a trigger return spring as it depends on the user to move the ring trigger back and forth with the index finger to rotate the cylinder; sort of a semi-double-action but requiring the hammer to be cocked manually.
Walking beam mechanism is worn out, so it does not index. Hammer does cock manually and does fall when the trigger is pulled. Chip missing from right grip ~1/4" x 3/4".
Fair condition overall. Sold as-is, no warranty implied or given. Not sold as a shooter. Please have any gun you plan to shoot thoroughly checked by a competent gunsmith prior to firing. A great collector's item.
Antique gun, manufactured before 1899.

Original Colt 1860 Army Revolver, manufactured circa 1861; this is the military four-screw version designed to accept a detachable shoulder stock (not included). A good early example; quite a bit of wear, and was aggressively cleaned over 30 years ago and coated with varnish overall for preservation (as was commonly done by museums). What a history this one must have - Civil War vintage. Appears complete and original; cylinder is typically a little loose from use on these older guns; appears to be all matching numbers with the exception of the barrel wedge. Fair to good condition overall, grips better (see images); no cylinder scene remains.
Used gun, sold as is; no warranty implied or given. Antique gun.

William W. Marston & Knox six-shot Pepperbox Revolving Pistol, ~.31 caliber percussion ignition. Barrel length is ~3-1/4" (if barrel is mesaured including powder chamber at nipples ~4"); ribbed barrel. Top of hammer-bar is stamped, "W.W. MARSTON"; side of hammer-bar is stamped, "NEW YORK 1854" (barely visible). One barrel rib is stamped, "W.W. MARSTON & KNOX NEW YORK". Marston & Knox stamoings as well as ribbed barrels are not common on W.W. Marston pepperboxes.
Poor to fair condition overall. Grips may have been replaced or modified to allow for flat surface hand carving. Engraved frame and nipple shield (still visible, see images). Action does not work and I am quite certain this will need a competent gunsmith to make it work correctly (the internal workings on these are complex). Various minor stock dings, scratches, etc.
