With an on-going military contract, Colt turned his eye on the civilian market in 1848. The first civilian pocket revolver, known as the Baby Dragoon, was a 23 ounce, .31 caliber pistol that fit easily in a coat pocket or belt holster, but lacked a loading lever. The following year the 1849 Pocket Model with integrated loading lever hit the market and Colt's success in the civilian market was assured.
