RARE!! Massachusetts Arms Co, Maynard Tape Primed Pocket Pistol, CAL: 28, MFG: late 1850's - early 60's, SN: 230, Single Action Revolver, 2 5/8'' barrel. These later versions of the Mass. Arms Co. Maynard Tape Primed Pocket Revolvers were manufactured after the expiration of Samuel Colt's patent in 1857. Only around 1,500-2,000 were manufactured before production stopped around 1860. This example is marked ''230'' on the right side of the frame under the primer door, the inside of the primer door, the right side of the grip frame, & the back of each grip. The barrel & cylinder lug are marked ''495''. The top strap has ''MASS ARMS CO/CHICOPEE FALLS''. The primer door has ''MAYNARD'S PATENT/SEP. 22. 1845.''. The frame, backstrap & primer door exhibit a simple floral scroll engraving. The wood grips are good, with the left grip having a spliced repair & a small corner chip on the right grip. The metal finish has toned to an even brown patina. Bore is very good, with a couple small areas of roughness. The barrel holds a pinched brass front sight & fixed notch rear sight. Cylinder does not rotate when hammer is cocked. A roll of Maynard primers is included. Another rare piece from Mass. Arms Co. Antique, No FFL Req. - Value: 500 to 2000
