Savage 1861 Ring Cocker
The Savage 1861 Navy is a unique Civil War-era revolver, with most units purchased by the US Army despite its 'Navy' designation. Its distinctive 'ring cocker' mechanism cocks the hammer and indexes the cylinder simultaneously. The revolver features an innovative gas seal and toggle lock system, similar to later designs like the Nagant 1895 and Luger, to prevent gas leakage.
