Gatling gun carriage question
« on: July 21, 2012, 12:49:13 PM »
Hello to all
While cleaning up my fathers property I came across what appears to be a Gatling gun carriage. It\'s tubuler construction with brass.  It has a placard on the front axle that reads Colts Pat Firearms and #37JAB

Can anyone provide me with more info? I will post pics later.

Welcome Mike,

This is a very interesting find. I have a collection of vintage Gatling Gun Field Manuals, I will see what I can find in those.

BTW - I took the liberty of resizing your images to allow viewing without scrolling, I hope you don\'t mind. I can restore to the orginal large size if you want.

Mike,
 You might try going to the \"American Restoration\" web site if they have one and send them a picture or two asking them for a quote. I am referring about the television show that is about a family business in Nevada.

Search Gatling on Gunbroker, I seen some odd ball stuff on there years ago bring real good money.
