Dardick Model 1500 Autoloading Revolver Serial Number PT1 in Carbine
Configuration - Serial no. PT1, 30 cal., 20 3/4 inch round bbl., black finish, hardwood
stock, plastic grips. Manufactured circa 1958-1962, the Dardick 1500 uses a novel
combination of a fixed in-grip magazine, an open-sided auto-ejecting three chamber
cylinder and a proprietary plastic-cased triangular cartridge dubbed the “tround”. This combination permits an ammunition capacity comparable to an automatic pistol while retaining the simple reliability of a revolver. Additionally, the barrel is secured with a single threaded bolt and can be rapidly detached or swapped. This pistol is currently equipped with a Dardick Corp marked .30 caliber barrel and fit into a carbine conversion unit. The serial number PT1 can be seen inside the grip behind the follower. Includes a box of 19 .38 special Trounds.
CONDITION: Very fine, retaining 90% black finish with minor handling marks, light spotting on the barrel, and slightly softened grip checkering. Conversion unit is very good with scattered dings and
scratches as well as an absent rear forearm screw. Mechanically fine.
Provenance: The Supica Collection.
Estimate: 1,200 - 1,800
