The Colt Model 1855 Root Side-hammer percussion Pocket Revolver was manufactured from 1855 through to 1870. It was designed by Samuel Colt even-though it was named after Elisha K.

The Root revolver has a sheathed trigger. Revolvers made to Colt's Patents live on today in the form of quality firearms produced by Italian firearms manufacturers.
