Super original iron MANHATTEN bullet mould for the Manhatten Navy model. Very rare in any condition.
Marked with the correct Manhatten firearms manufg NY marks which are superb.
Real outstanding condition, this one has not been used much it has real sharp edges and there are scatterings of the original blue on the mould in several places, probabaly the best one of these you will ever see!
It cast a superb .36 caliber conical with grease grove and round ball bullet as the cavities are superb and not pitted, infact the mould cavities are like new.
The Manhatten navy was almost identical to the Colt 1851 navy and was a popular civil war revolver. Out of interest the Manhatten mould makes a .36 but with a grease grove that was not available for the 1851 Colt navy mould, but was available on the Colt 1862 Police mould, this is an extreamly rare and collectible mould, the bullet this one casts is identical to the Colt .36 Police mould conical bullet with the grove!
Many thanks for looking, any questions are welcome.
