Colt .38 Lightning
SOLD
Description: A very interesting 1877 Model with one piece ivory grips. Manufactured in 1880, serial number 24xxx, this 3 1/2 inch barrel double action has one piece, factory original ivory grips. The two scales are joined with wooden blocks in the traditional way and one side carries the serial number in ink on the inside. What is interesting and very unusual is that two different types of ivory were used. The left side appears to be elephant ivory, and the right, walrus. Neither side appears to be a replacement. One possible explanation could be simply a mistake. Since fresh cut ivory scales are white in color, the two types could have become mixed, and were undescernable at the time. The gun is mechanically sound and retains approximately 50% original nickel and blue on the hammer, trigger and some screws. A very attractive antique Colt, it also has the acid etched caliber panel on the left side of the barrel. PRICE: $1,895 We are Antique & Modern Firearms in Lexington, KY, dealer of fine firearms since 1974. PH. 859-276-1419 We Buy, Sell and Trade. Have a firearms collection to sell, let us know.
