It arrived today! I bought a Colt Navy 1851, it has the box,outer cardboard sleeve over the box,all the papers,the gun is emaculate.I could not be any happier with it,I just had to tell you guys about it.The box is marked as model #C1121.Serial #97xx. Even the box and papers look great. Can someone tell me what year this Colt was made? I bought it to shoot, what is the normal load, powder charge, ball size, cap size, 10 or 11? The barrel wedge is colored like the frame,I have not seen this before. The silver is tarnished some, will brasso clean it up, or do I need something else?
