Recognized as the mainstay of the Union Army, the original 1860 was ordered in large numbers to fill the ranks, and its .44 caliber punch made it as powerful as it was popular. This Traditions Performance Firearms 1860 Army Redi-Pak (Traditions part no. FRS18602) bundles the revolver — an 8″ blued barrel, brass frame, brass guard, and walnut grip with hammer/blade sights — with every loading, shooting, and cleaning accessory needed for a day at the range: cleaning patches, a nipple wrench, lead balls, a brass field capper, a field flask, Wonderlube 1000 Plus, a revolver powder measure, muzzleloading bore solvent, and a pocket cleaning kit. All you supply is powder, caps, and standard eye and ear protection. See more Redi-Pak kits in our Black Powder Pistols & Muzzleloader Pistols category.
