Colt 1849 revolver 31 cal
Description: The action is crisp timing is correctnipples look very good. The finish retain 90% blue i . the barrel address says is engraved sam colt in old english script. the cyclinder scean is faint with all matching # 15500x the wedge does not match but is marked with a 5 that i could see. The grips are genuine Ivory if you look closley you can see the banding . the receiver has taken on a brownish patina over fading case colors on receiver.I rescued this from an old collector that had it hanging for 30 years. I suspect this was a special presentation revolver.......I did clean the bore it had all kinds of dried oil in it. It came out really nice and lands and grooves are very sharp as well bright shine with very little if any black powder etch........I think was not fired very much. there is no wobble in the cyclinder and lock up is tight all clicks heard. these old guns are what they any who the old gent I got it from said he won it in a raffel at the bingo hall over 30 years ago it was hanging for god knows how long. I did wash the ivory grips with warm water and Dawn. they were light brown with nicotine smoke.If you can find a pair of genuine Ivory grips plan on paying $750 a pair They came out really nice looks like a very good fit . circa this peice is 1859 serial 155007 may have seen civil war activity......... i ship to the world .i accept international bank wire transfer SOLD Curio/Relic: Yes |
