Description:
Serial #2798, .31 caliber, 4 1/2" barrel with a very good, bright bore that has some light freckling, heaviest within the grooves at the muzzle. The metal of this 1861 manufactured revolver retains traces of the original bright blue on the rear of the frame that mixes with a speckled plum-brown and gray patina on the balance, along with additional silvering along the edges. The cylinder has traces of the original blue within the flutes, and also has a predominantly dull brown patina. The walnut grips are in fair-good shape with light handling blemishes, and chips missing from the toe, as well as the heel on the right panel. The mechanism is fully functional, and the lock-up is tight. This is a very good example of a desirable, long-barreled side-hammer Colt, and would make a great representative example for a collection. Antique
