Pietta F.lli 1862 SPILLER&BURR SPB36 Description

Lieutenant Colonel James H. Burton, together with wealthy Virginia investors Edward N. Spiller and David J. Burr, also answered the Confederacy's call for the manufacture of weapons. Though the Confederate army had officially adopted and contracted for the production of copies of Colt's 1851 Navy revolver (please visit our 1851 Navy page for our extesive selection) Col. Burton chose to copy the solid frame design by Eli Whitney Jr. which he felt was superior to the Colt Navy. Shortages in materials, work force, and having the factory moved to keep it from falling into enemy hands meant less than 1,500 of the brass framed Spiller & Burr revolvers were produced before the war ended. Pietta's percussion revolvers are produced using the latest computer-controlled CNC machinery for maximum consistency before being individually hand assembled, fitted, and finished by European craftsmen.
