Heritage-grade engraving and commemorative details
The Tier III finish distinguishes this piece: a black powder style frame coupled with an acid-etched commemorative banner on the barrel reading “1873 150th Anniversary 2023”. B+ coverage laser engraving has been hand chased, following a Helfricht pattern inspired by Jon Pease engraving of the Tier I firearms. Those specific engraving cues give the revolver visual depth and collector-grade authenticity rarely seen on modern commemoratives.
Fit, finish, and functional appointments
Beyond decorative work, the revolver includes practical, hand-selected touches: a beveled cylinder for smoother indexing, a bullseye ejector rod for reliable casing removal, and two-piece walnut grips selected for grain and ergonomics. Qualified screws, color case finish on the frame and hammer, and charcoal-blue small parts complete the aesthetic. The finish work was completed by Turnbull Restoration, a name associated with high-end firearm restoration and finishing.
Price for this limited run is listed at $6,100.99—reflective of the archival engraving, restoration pedigree, and extreme rarity. For full specifications and current inventory, View product details and pricing.
