Description:
#4984 Colt S/A 4-3/4”x44WCF, 118XXX(1897), G-VG bore, just (6 to 6-1/2 on a scale of 10) and having no pitting of mention but does have considerable wear to the rifling. Indexes fine, and the action is very tight with all clicks on the hammer. The exterior has a smooth even dark grayish-brown patina on good metal, but the markings are very weak with just faint traces of the two-line barrel address visable, and there are deep pits on the ejector housing (see photos). All matching numbers. The etched COLT FRONTIER SIX-SHOOTER barrel logo is totally gone from holster wear having worn off any vestage of it. Worn original wood grips have been non-factory checkered by some bored cowboy and are undersized on all edges and there is a small shallow cut on the top of the barrel. Overall this is just an average little “short-barreled bad forty-four” (to quote Marty Robbins in his song “Mr Shorty”) and while it’s not a great high-end collectors item, it is a very inexpensive 1880s Single Action in a very popular configuration. G-G+. $2250
