COPY COLT ~ Every Collection needs a Metropolitan Arms Company
Revolver .... these revolvers are scary Colt looking. No US contracts and I'm
guessing plenty were privately bought by Southern buyers. These .36 caliber
revolvers had to be popular and weapon shipments from abroad had to be
getting scarce. This example has all matching numbers including the wedge.
The action is crisp and the original wood grips look sweet. REBEL PRICED
FOR THE NIGHT SHIFT .... ON THE NIGHT SHIFT .... REBEL, REBEL .... HE
WAS A FRIEND OF MINE AND HE COULD SING THE SONGS .... HIS HEART IN
EVERY LINE ..... LOL .....
$1,495.00
SCARCE COLT YOUR COLLECTION MAYBE MISSING ~ Colt Model
1862 Pocket Navy Revolver with working action and some original varnish on
the wood grips. All matching 1861 production serial numbers and some visible
cylinder scene. The barrel address is visible too with .36 caliber visible on the
brass trigger guard. This is the long barrel just to make this rare Colt even
better. This one is part of a big Texas Collection one of my pickers sent to me.
SCARCE COLT AND REBEL PRICED .........
$1,295.00 ON HOLD
CONFEDERATE BRASS AND STEEL ~ Some say Selma .... Some say
Leech & Rigdon .... Some say love it is a river .... Rebel says .... who cares .... It
is one awesome Confederate Short Sword with classic casting flaws and strong
eye appeal. These are very scarce on the market and an example you will not
see often offered .... Solid condition with signs of obvious service and usage .....
The pictures are out of the book "COLLECTING THE CONFEDERACY" .....
Another World Famous Rebel Relic ..... and REBEL PRICED for unbeatable
value.

Brian,
Congratulations on acquiring my W F Hodge cartridge box. I have owned it
since 2000 when I bought it from Norm Flayderman. I had seen this box many
many years ago when Norm was still in New England and I had the privilege of
seeing many of his Confederate accoutrements. When he sold his collection in
the 1990s and early 2000s I bought this and other great boxes and belts he had
bought in the 1950s and 1960s.
The box has the most complete carving of any box I have ever owned, the
carving on the front denoting his name, company and unit. It is clear and
legible. There is no doubt as to who he is. The box, other than the all important
ID carved on the front flap, also has all the attributes one would want on a
Confederate cartridge box. The thick, brown leather that is in great condition,
the original tins, tool pouch, latch tab, roller buckles and lead finial. It even has
most of its original narrow leather sling. The box is even accompanied by an old
typewritten card accompanying the box, saying where the box was picked up,
and who donated it to the historical society where it was displayed for many,
many years. Notice the mistake that the historian made when typing up the
card, he misidentified W F Hodge as being a member of the 1st SC. He or she
probably did not look at the carving on the fronT of the box, not looking carEfully
enough to see that the regimental designation is clearly an "18", not a "1".
All in all, this is one of the most complete boxes I have ever owned, is in a great
state of untouched condition, and would be an important addition to anyones
Confederate collection. Thank you again, and best regards,
Michael D. Kramer
Morristown, New Jersey

REBEL PRICE .............
$6,750.00
PACK YOUR BAGS MEN ~ Strong eye appeal and condition with truly
wonderful Civil War eye appeal .... on display this artifact really stands out and
adds "REBEL POP" .... to the War Room. This example was part of a collection
of Confederate hard packs .... with several of the other examples being
identified to Confederate Soldiers. One was taken by a Yankee soldier with the
Confederate cap and cartridge box. I tried to get the identified ones but failed
miserably in my efforts. Probably lucky to get this awesome example .... I sold
one of these earlier in the year and this one is just as nice. The first picture
shows the condition and the pack is empty .... solid condition with good leather
straps and roller buckles. The more you handle this example the more cool
things "REBEL" you find .... like the same roller buckles we find on other CS
leather artifacts. REBEL PRICED ............
$2,750.00
REBEL CHOICE AWARD WINNER ~ Probably the REBEL RELIC
CONFEDERATE BOWIE OF THE YEAR WINNER ..... The eye appeal in plain
Southern English says .... " GET BACK YANKEE " .... The blade is the picture
perfect example of Southern blacksmith file to knife ... this knife is text book ....
all in one artifact story of the Confederacy. It is crude and has a tired wood
handle and simple iron d-guard. The patina is deep and uncleaned with solid
construction and still could be used to defend the Southern homeland today. I
met the fellow who originally purchased the knife from the "picker" in Alabama.
He offered me an outrageous trade towards the knife .... This example was
recently part of a museum display and truly is a fantastic example. I paid blood
money for the knife and it is probably NOT REBEL PRICED ...... It is one bad ass
example and buyer's remorse is something you will never have. I love it and you
will too.
$2,995.00 ON HOLD
DON'T TREAD ON REBEL ~ Picture perfect example of a blacksmith
crafted Civil War Confederate Bowie .... Numerous Civil War Period Images
show Southern Boys proudly armed with these massive D-Guards. This
example is strong on eye appeal and condition with every trait I look for in an
awesome example of Southern Steel. REBEL STRONG ........
$2,350.00
TENNESSEE BACK ROADS ~ Colt Model 1860 Army Revolver with all
matching serial numbers and 1862 production .... even the wedge matches.
This one has the look of a Southern used revolver .... notice the wood grip.
Probably at one time had the owners initials on nickel silver. The barrel address
is period gone .... I mean "M.I.A." .... It truly looks like it was never there. Other
side has some repair but solid as a rock. The action is crisp and displays
awesome ... no doubt fired in anger during the War of Northern Aggression.
REBEL PRICED ........
$1,150.00
HARTFORD ADDRESS ~ Colt Model 1849 Pocket Revolver with all
matching serial numbers .... including the wedge. This Colt was made in late
1859 and very likely could have been in Texas when Northern aggression
started. Nice working action and the original wood grips look great. The eye
appeal is very strong ... this is a scarce revolver with the iron hardware which
gives this Colt a stealth appearance. Picked by one of my many REBEL
PICKERS from my second favorite State ..... TEXAS. This looks like the first
year in years I will not get to hunt the Lone Star State. REBEL PRICED FOR
FRIENDSHIP MAKING.
$1,175.00

$1,850.00 LAY AWAY
HISTORY OF SOUTHERN USAGE ~ There is rumor and some history of
this Model Ames being ordered by Southern States prior to the War of Northern
Aggression and Big Government. This example is fresh to the market and
surfaced in Southern Kentucky. Nice solid 1860 dated Ames with original
leather and wire wrap and scabbard. Some expected wear and dings but the
pictures tell the tale. I have seen these swords priced from $1,250.00 to
$1,850.00 .... Early dated Ames Swords are very desirable and scarce .... Rebel
Claus in the Spirit of CHRISTmas has decided to REBEL PRICE THIS BEAUTY.
$925.00
LOCAL COLLECTION ~ Part of a local collection I just bought .... All the
Colt Revolvers have that Southern used eye appeal .... from initials to carvings.
Beautiful Colt Model 1851 Navy Revolver with strong eye appeal ... the original
wood grips have loads of original finish. The reason is this one was housed in a
gorgeous Confederate "pigskin" holster ... All matching serial numbers including
the wedge. Early 1863 production and has working action but the springs are
somewhat weak from time to time. Easy fix if desired but unless you plan on
using for home defense not necessary. This example does have an "X" or two
carved here and there for some reason. Very nice Colt that no doubt saw some
Civil War action and fired in anger. REBEL RELIC PRICE .......
$1,850.00
I JUST FEEL REBEL ~ Solid example Model 1860 Colt Army Revolver with
crisp action and all matching serial numbers. Military cartouche still visible on
original wood grips and cylinder scene visible. Very desirable 1862 production
Colt with nothing to complain about. Part of a local collection I just bought and

Southern troops. Captured Yankee revolver or not ... it is a solid example that
would be hard to upgrade especially at this REBEL PRICE .........

Navy in the amount of time the Confederacy had to work with .... simply
stunning. Here is an excellent artifact of the Confederate Navy. Courtney &
Tennant of Charleston, SC. marked Naval Cutlass with visible retailer mark and
honest wear. I really like this example and displays great. REBEL PRICED ....
$4,200.00
.50 CAL. ONE SHOT ~ Good looking Maynard Carbine with plenty of
original finish and some color .... This example has visible maker marks and
strong bore and eye appeal. Here is another very nice Civil War Firearm
"REBEL PICKED" ...... from Texas. This Maynard smells Southern used .... on
the stock where the cartouche would be sure looks like Civil War period looking
old cross hatch cartouche removal. Could be just saddle wear but looks and
smells States Rights to me. I can smell the powder burning when I hold this one
shot one kill carbine. Maynards were one of the most accurate weapons of the
Civil War. REBEL RELIC PRICED ..........
$1,850.00 ON HOLD
LUCKY STARR ~ Beautiful Starr .36 caliber "Navy" Revolver with crisp
double action and matching serial numbers. This is a scarce model with only

PRIVATE REBEL PURCHASE ~ Schuyler, Hartley, and Graham of New York
sold some of these privately .... This example has no military markings .... This
.50 caliber carbine was sold to me with North Carolina History and may have
rode with the Southern Cavalry. There is also the "REBEL" initials carved in the
stock not often seen on Yankee only used weapons. Smith Carbines were used
by General Buford's Cavalry at The Battle of Gettsyburg .... We will never know
for sure who used this carbine but has the look of a Johnny used firearm.

and strong maker marks. REBEL PRICED TO MAKE ALL THINGS GOOD
