The model 1851 Adams Dragoon Revolver was manufactured in 1851 & 1852. It came in 4 calibers & the 0.50 caliber is the most uncommon to find. This revolver fired a conical bullet & this type round ball...both with the typical dustbin teat. According to some information I found from College Hill Arsenal website (Tim Prince) some of these revolvers did make it to America during the American civil war & in the 1960's a model 1851 was dug at  Brandy Station, Virginia.  This item is SOLD.
