Allen and Thurber was a 19th-century American gun manufacturer based in Worcester, Massachusetts, known for producing a range of firearms, including pistols and shotguns. Established in 1820, the company gained a reputation for its innovative designs, particularly in the development of percussion cap firearms. The firm specialized in making affordable weapons for the civilian market and was notable for its contribution to the production of "pepper-box" revolvers. Allen and Thurber's firearms were popular during their time, but the company ceased operations by the late 1800s, leaving behind a legacy as a significant player in early American gun manufacturing.
