    Description

    "This replica gun contains the colored markings required by law, including a permanently attached orange plug".
    Antique Kenton "BLACK JACK" cast iron cap pistol.
    11" long with a 7-1/4" barrel, non-revolving fluted cylinder, single action, and weighs 11 oz.
    Marked "BLACK JACK" on the left side with an "S" inside a circle.
    Marked "PAT.---SEPT.---11-23" on the right side with a "W" inside a circle.
    Probably intended to copy the Smith & Wesson Model 4 Break-Top 32 caliber.
    Speculation is that it was named after General "Black Jack" Pershing from WWI.
    The hammer will not stay back in the locked, position but it snaps forward with enough force to shoot a single cap, when you release it.
