Description:
 ALMOST NEVER ENCOUNTERED NEW SERVICE .45 COLT CALIBER, 5 1/2" BARREL REVOLVER IN EXTREMELY RARE FACTORY NICKEL FINISH!  This is a very late Great Depression era Colt with serial number in the 344XXX range indicating a manufacture date of 1938. At this time Colt was turning out relatively few New Service revolvers compared to the decades before the Depression. It is fitted with ivory grips that show an aged and mellow color. All markings are sharp and crisp including the rampant colt on the frame, all the barrel markings and Colt proof. This excellent condition New Service retains nearly all the nickel with only some minor peeling on the edges of the cylinder and left side of the trigger. There is also some light scattered freckling from age only- all very minor. Front sight has not been altered, lanyard ring intact and retains all the nickel finish. Tight action and exc. bore. A stunning and extremely scarce New Service variation.
