The Cimarron 1861 Navy Military .36 caliber revolver with a 7.5-inch barrel (brand part no. CA050) is a cap-and-ball six-shooter modeled on the original Navy that rode through the Civil War. This military version has a case-hardened frame cut for a shoulder stock, a one-piece walnut grip, a blued backstrap and the standard blue finish. The cylinder carries the roll-engraved naval battle scene of the original, and it is a black powder revolver. It suits a reenactor or a cap-and-ball shooter who wants an authentic Navy that is also fun to shoot.
