The pistol has gone to brown patinawith light surface erosion and some pin prick pitting, light engraving on the frame and the hammer is marked, “MANHATTAN F.A. MFG. CO. / NEW YORK”. The period, screw in bayonet is extremely unusual and appears hand crafted. The blade is not sharpened and measures 4 1/8” in total length. The smooth wood grips are in good condition with a small indentation on the right panel. The pistol was manufactured beginning in 1856 with total production numbers estimated from 2,500-3,000. This is an extremely rare example with period bayonet. Est.: $750-$1,500. (Antique).
