Confederate Civil War Lemat Revolver 1070

Confederate LeMat Revolver – The Thunder of the South

The double threat of the Confederate cavalry on its gallop into history.

In the dusty South, during the heated days of the Civil War , arose a weapon as audacious as its cause: the LeMat revolver , a marvel of Confederate warfare engineering. Designed in 1856 by Jean Alexandre LeMat , this unique revolver was a favorite of Confederate cavalry officers for its lethal combination of nine revolver shots and an additional shotgun shell under the main barrel .

This formidable muzzle-loading revolver was initially manufactured in Philadelphia , and later in France , from where units were shipped to the Southern states via the United Kingdom. Its innovative design, though limited in accuracy, made it a feared weapon at close range. With walnut grips , a steel body , and an octagonal barrel, its intimidating silhouette was a symbol of defiance on the battlefields of the Confederacy.
