Seller's Inventory #: C10038
Colt Medium Frame Lighting .38-40 caliber rifle. Made in 1894. Very nice gun with a lot of the original finish. Barrel has 90%+ original blue; the magazine tube has blue in protected area, but is thinning and mixed with a light brown patina. For whatever reason the magazine tube on lightning rifles never hold their finish well. The frame has 70% of the original blue with the remainder turning to a brown patina. Wood is excellent, checkering remains sharp. Bore is excellent. A very attractive medium frame Lightning!
