Samuel_Colt_1851 :
@Da Payne: @Da Payne: @Da Payne: That is a repro of a Colt flask. Nobody used those in the Civil War, they used paper cartridges, but Colt was obligated to provide flasks by the 1847 Walker contract. The original idea was to equip each ranger with two revolvers so Colt was providing one flask per two revolvers. This was a point of contention between Colt and ordinance officer Talcott, who is the Gargamel of the Colt patent firearms story and insisted Colt provide 1,000 flasks for the 1,000 revolvers as only one would be issued to each man. Ordinance officers in Europe and America held a common belief that if a soldier had too much firepower, they would just waste ammunition. When Colt secured that Walker contract he had been out of business for years. He didn’t have a factory, or even a revolver. He tried to get one of the unsuccessful Patterson revolvers Colt initially made, but couldn’t find one. So when Colt sold those revolvers, he didn’t have a factory or a gun. He designed the Walker with input from Texas Ranger Samuel Walker and had them built by Eli Whitney, son of the Cotton gin inventor. He was one hell of a salesman.
