Historical Background:

First introduced by Colt in 1849, the M1849 Pocket Revolver became one of the best-selling handguns of the 19th century, widely used for personal protection, law enforcement, and frontier defense. Chambered in .31 caliber, it was smaller and more compact than full-sized revolvers, making it ideal for civilians, gamblers, and traveling merchants who needed a reliable and easily concealed sidearm.

The M1849 was carried by pioneers, lawmen, and even Civil War soldiers as a backup weapon. Its popularity extended well into the post-Civil War era, where it was often seen in the hands of saloon patrons, stagecoach travelers, and city dwellers in search of personal defense.
