Antique COLT THUNDERER M1877 Revolver Made In 1879
.41 Caliber Double Action Six Shooter w HOLSTER!
Here we present an Antique Colt M1877 “Thunderer” Revolver in .41 Colt, manufactured in 1879. The Model 1877 was offered in three different calibers, which led to the three unofficial names. The “Lightning” which was chambered in .38 Long Colt. The “Thunderer” which was chambered in .41 Long Colt. And, the “Rainmaker” which was chambered in .32 Long Colt. Neither "Lightning" nor "Thunderer" were Colt designations, and were not used by the factory in any reference materials. Both terms were coined by Benjamin Kittredge, one of Colt's major distributors. Kittredge was responsible for the term "Peacemaker" for the Colt Single Action Army. The 1877 "Thunderer" in .41 caliber was the preferred weapon of Billy the Kid and was his weapon of choice when he was killed by Pat Garrett in 1881.
The overall condition is fair. 30% of the original blue finish remains. The front sight has been modified to have a flat top. The markings are clear. The numbers match. The grips have been replaced with hand-checkered walnut. The bore is bright with sharp rifling. The action (hammer/trigger) are strong, however, the cylinder does not currently revolve. The holster is in very good condition.
