1959 Carnell Bat Masterson Cap Gun Revolving Cylinder With Exc. Repro. Box

  
THIS LISTING IS FOR A RARE 1959-60 CARNELL BAT MASTERSON CAP GUN WITH THE REVOLVING CYLINDER, AND A SUPERB REPRO. THE GUN FIRES STRONG AND OPERATES CORRECTLY. THE CAP GUN IS IN EXCELLENT WORKING MECHANICAL CONDITION AND I WOULD SAY THAT IT WAS FIRED VERY LITTLE IF AT ALL. THE HAMMER AND TRIGGER SPRINGS ARE STRONG AND THE GUN FIRES CORRECTLY. THE LOADING GATE OPENS AND CLOSES SMOOTHLY AND STAYS CLOSED WHEN THE GUN IS FIRED.

THE EJECTOR ROD OPERATES CORRECTLY AND RELEASES THE CYLINDER FOR REMOVAL. THE CYLINDER IS REMOVEABLE TO LOAD THE TWO-PIECE BULLETS. AS IS USUAL WITH THIS GUN, THE ORIGINAL TWO PIECE BULLETS ARE MISSING. THE CYLINDER ROTATES SMOOTHLY AND INDEXES WITH EACH PULL OF THE TRIGGER. SINCE THERE ARE NO BULLETS, A SMALL WADE OF PAPER TOWEL OR CLOTH SHOULD BE PLACED AGAINST THE ANVIL WHEN TEST FIRING THIS GUN TO ABSORB THE IMPACT OF THE HAMMER AND AVOID DAMAGE.

THE SPRINGS ON THIS GUN ARE VERY STRONG. THE COSMETIC CONDITION OF THIS GUN IS VERY GOOD WITH SOME OF THE SILVER FLASH FINISH MISSING HERE AND THERE AND SOME FADING FROM AGE AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE CLOSE-UP PHOTOS. THE SILVER FINISH IS TIGHT TO THE METAL WITH NO ADDITIONAL FLAKING.

THERE IS NO RUST OR CORROSION. THE RIGHT GRIP IS ABSOLUTELY ORIGINAL AND IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH NO CRACKS, MARS OR REPAIRS. THERE IS A SMALL 1/8 CHIP MISSING FROM THE BOTTOM LEFT CORNER OF THE RIGHT GRIP. YOU CAN SEE IT IN THE CLOSE-UP PHOTOS. THE LEFT GRIP IS A NICE ONE-OFF PAINTED RESIN REPRODUCTION THAT SOMEONE MOLDED FROM AN ORIGINAL.

IT FITS WELL AND LOOKS PRETTY GOOD. I CREATED THE BOX USING AN ORIGINAL TO COPY.

IT IS CONSTRUCTED EXACTLY LIKE THE ORIGINAL IN ALL WAYS AND IS VIRTUALLY INDISTINGUISHABLE FROM AN ORIGINAL. THIS BOX IS THE LAST ONE THAT WILL EVERY BE MADE. THIS IS A FANTASTIC DISPLAY PIECE TO ADD TO YOUR COLLECTION. IF YOU HAPPEN TO HAVE AN ORIGINAL LEFT GRIP, I WILL PAY TOP DOLLAR TO MAKE THIS GUN ALL ORIGINAL.
