1837 Allen & Thurber Pepperbox 6 Shots Revolver, Replica
Faithful replica of a percussion handgun known as a 6-shots pepper-box revolver, or simply pepperbox, from 1837 (Allen & Thurber, Worcester, Massachusetts). This type of multiple-barrel firearm was particularly popular in North America from the 1830s to the Civil War and was used by both civilians and military officers during the settling of the frontier. Although mostly associated with the Wild West, it also quickly spread from the United States to the UK and even continental Europe. More information...
