Historical Background:

The Colt M1860 Army Revolver was introduced in 1860 and became the standard-issue sidearm for the Union Army during the American Civil War. With its .44 caliber firepower, improved balance, and lighter weight compared to previous Colt revolvers, it was a favorite among officers, cavalry units, and infantry soldiers.

This revolver played a pivotal role in Civil War battles, being carried by famous historical figures such as General Ulysses S. Grant and Confederate General J.E.B. Stuart. It remained in use well after the war, influencing later revolver designs and earning a place in American firearms history.
