The Colt Model 1855 side-hammer, also known as the Colt Root Revolver—named after Elisha K. Root, who was Colt’s factory foreman and general superintendent—was Colt’s only percussion handgun built on the solid frame principle and featured a side-hammer, mounted on the right side of the frame, a spur trigger, a cylinder pin entering from the rear, and one-piece grips secured to the back-strap. The Root was manufactured between 1855 to 1870
