I have to apologize for this picture in advance. It was taken as a joke to mock the semi-professional gun pictures people do where there is usually a pocketknife, cigar, zippo, and glass of sherry in there somewhere. It was something I posted on another forum where a bunch of people were making similiar "white trash" photo postings like this as a joke.

But it's the only picture I have available to me of my EMF Hartford 1861.

It was originally a blued gun. I disassembled it pretty much completely--even the cap nipples came off and were shipped seperate--and sent it to Mahovsky's SS Metalife for plating.

The thing is virtually rust and scratch proof now.
