Bailey Creek,5759 Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 It came out late in the Civil War. They were never issued to Troops. Nice Revolvers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you might be remembering the rogers and spencer. Spiller and burr was a brass(actually IIRC bronze) full frame revolver made in the south for the confederacy. I remember reading many accounts, though limited in numbers, use and being issued. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
