Description:
THE PICTURES MISREPRESENT AS THIS REVOLVER IS ACTUALLY DARKER THAN WHAT IS SHOWN. THE LIGHT IN THE ROOM IS HARD TO WORK WITH.
THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL PIECE OF UNITED STATES HISTORY! THIS IS A MARITALLY MARKED 1885 MADE COLT SINGLE ACTION ARMY 1873 45 COLT US CAVALRY REVOLVER. THIS IS THE ORIGINAL BLUE FINISH WITH CASE HARDENED RECEIVER. THE REVOLVER RETAINS 70-75% OF THE ORIGINAL BLUE AND 25-35% OF THE ORIGINAL CASE HARDENING ON THE RECEIVER AND HAMMER. THIS HAS A 7 1/2" BARREL STAMPED WITH A ONE LINE BLOCK LETTER "COLT'S PT. F. A. MFG. Co HARTFORD CT. U.S.A" ON THE TOP IN A CRISP AND CLEAN LETTERING. THE LEFT SIDE OF THE FRAME HAS A 3 LINE PATEN DATES "PAT SEPT. 19 1871... JULY 2-72... JAN 19-75" AND ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THAT A SMALL "US" MARKING. THE REVOLVER HAS 1 PIECE WALNUT GRIPS WITH INSPECTOR MARK "JGB" ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE GRIP. THE SERIAL NUMBER, 114348 SHOWS ON THE BOTTOM OF THE FRAME, THE TRIGGER GAURD, THE BUTT OF THE FRAME AND THE LAST 4 DIGITS "4348" ON THE CYLINDER. THE UNDERSIDE OF THE BARREL IS STAMPED WITH A "P" PROOF MARK FOLLOWED BY "D.F.C" SUB INSPECTION MARK. THE "D.F.C." INSPECTORS MARK IS ALSO ON THE CYLINDER, THE BOTTOM OF THE RECEIVER, AND BARREL. A "P" PROOF MARK IS ALSO STAMPED ON THE CYLINDER. THE LOADING GATE IS STAMPED WITH THE ASSEMBLY NUMBER "607." THIS RETAINS 70-75% OF THE ORIGINAL BLUE WITH LOSS ON THE EJECTION ROD COVER, MUZZLE, HIGH EDGE LINES ON THE CYLINDER AND FRAME. THE CASE COLOR RETAINS ABOUT 25-35% ORIGINAL COLOR ON THE LOW CORNERS AND CREVESIS OF THE RECEIVER AND THE SIDES OF THE HAMMER WHICH ARE ALL PREDOMINATE LOSS POINTS. THE RECEIVER AND FRAME HAVE BLUE AND CASE COLOR RETAINING BUT ARE PREDOMINATLY PATINA. THE MAJORITY OF THE FACTORY MARKINGS ARE CLEAN AND CRISP. THE GRIPS ARE IN MODERATE TO GOOD CONDITION. THE CARTOUCHE'S ARE VISABLE BUT ONE IS HARD TO READ THE OTHER ARE VISABLE AND MODERATE TO MAKE OUT. THE LOCK UP AND ACTION ARE TIGHT AND SEEM TO BE IN GREAT WORKING ORDER. COLT ARCHIVES HAVE VERIFIED THIS REVOLVER TO BE ACURATE AND I AM CURRENTLY WAITING ON THE LETTER TO ARRIVE. THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST EXAMPLE OF A US CAVALRY SAA THAT IS ALL ORIGINAL AND UNMOLESTED. THE HOLSTER IS A PERIOD CORRECT "MONTGOMERY WARD & CO. CHICAGO, IL" MARKED "45" SAA ARMY HOLSTER AND BELT WITH BULLET HOLDERS. SPOKE WITH JOHN KOPEC, THIS WAS A SAA THAT HAS NEVER SURFACED TILL NOW. THERE WAS NO RECORD. I WILL SEND IT OFF FOR HIS VERIFICATION AS WELL. FOR QUESTIONS CALL ALBERT AT 513-563-2781 OR 513-446-4311.FOR INFO ON THE LAYAWAY PLEASE ASK. THERE IS A CREDIT CARD PROCESSING FEE. PLEASE ASK ABOUT RATES IF CONCERNED. I DO TRADE FOR OTHER FIREARM, GOLD, SILVER, PROPERTY, ECT.
