Description:
#4982 Colt S/A, 2”x38WCF, 171XXX range (1897). Non-factory “Belly Gun” w/o ejector system and no front sight. VG-Fine bore, about a 7-8 on a scale of 10 with just minor lead build-up and minor wear, no bad spots. Fine tight smooth action with all the clicks on the hammer and a crisp lock-up, and probably is a pretty good handful with a barrel this short! The smooth metal is very good with no appreciable on the right side, but has some freckle pitting and roughness on the left side, probably due to long storage in a leather holster, and the topstrap sighting groove has been filled and smoothed off with lead or solder. The patent markings are pretty good, and the two-line address is very good. Otherwise, it’s just a thin grey-brown over most of the surface. Standard hard rubber grips which have about 80% wear to the checking but still have a very handsome appearance. A very, VERY decent and colorful short-barreled “Belly-Buster” Colt. VG $1995
