Neat looking pistol. I don't know much about the old ones. I would like to have an old Navy Colt someday.

M1861 .44 cal, popular during the civil war and for post-war conversion to cartridge because of the solid frame, not as common as the M1858 and worth a bit more. That'a a decent looking example.

8" barrels were .44, 7.37" barrels were .36. Didn't look on the next page to see the .36 listing, but the rarity and value are the same Wink
