RICHARDS CONVERSION, 1860 ARMY REVOLVER
The Richards Transformation was Colt’s second attempt at metallic cartridge conversion and it met with quite a bit more success than the Thuer Model. The Richards Conversion was designed for the .44 Colt cartridge and has a six-shot cylinder and an integral ejector rod to replace the loading lever that had been removed. The other specifications pertaining to the 1860 Army Revolver remain as previously described if they were not directly altered by the conversion. The Richards Conversion adds a breechplate with a firing pin and its own rear sight. Approximately 9,000 of these conversions were manufactured on the basis of a number of the old caplock designs and parts between 1873 and 1878: the .44-caliber M1860 revolver (1,153 converted for the army in 1871), the .36-cal. M1851 and M1861 and 368 .38-cal. rimfire adaptations, which went to the navy in 1873.
