CIVILIAN MODEL 1905 U.S. MARINE CORPS .38DA REVOLVER.
Description: ONE OF THE SMALLEST PRODUCTION COLTS OF ALL IS THIS COMMERCIAL OR CIVILIAN MODEL 1905 U.S. MARINE CORPS .38DA REVOLVER. A total run of only 926 of these distinctive revolvers were made between 1905-1909. 812 of these went to the Marine Corps and have U.S.M.C. markings etc. The remaining 114 are all in the 10XXX serial range, have no U.S.M.C. markings and have the lanyard swivel in the butt replaced with a round filler. This is an easy model to discern as it is a typical 1895 .38DA but instead of having squared smooth walnut grips this unique model has a rounded butt with checkered walnut grips. These were made to accept the standard U.S. .38 Colt cartridge, but since the cylinder chambers are bored straight through, they will also shoot .38 Special ammo (but NOT high pressure or +P loadings). This example has seen normal use and carry, but retains the original round checkered walnut grips. Mechanically it is in fine condition with an excellent bore. Front sight has not been filed or altered, cylinder latch and serial number match. Blue wear is consistent with normal carry and shows gray on the front strap and back strap as well as on the sides of the barrel, good cylinder blue shows thinning on outside area with deep blue in the flutes, fine frame blue with edge wear and some gray on the right side below the hammer where it looks like a holster retaining strap rubbed. Fine blue on the top and bottom of the barrel and in all protected areas and still retains fine fire blue on the hammer back. Overall a fine example of an extremely limited production Colt!
