How the first US Army cartridges for the Colt Walker and Colt Dragoon revolvers were devised and made in the 1850s
Just a quick note to prevent confusion. These cartridges were not combustible as were later Civil War era versions. The ball was removed from the paper and the powder was poured into chamber. The paper was discarded.
Another note: Lt James Benton, mentioned in the video was superintendent of the Springfield Arsenal after the Civil War. He established the museum that is there now.
Maj Lewis Merrill later became the commander of the 2nd MO Cavalry. His regiment was camped at Hick's Station Arkansas after the capture of Little Rock. It is from his camp that I recovered the Johnston & Dow .44 bullet that was copied for my line of bullet molds.
