The metal is extremely nice conditioned revolver for its age and above the average for a pre-1890s gun and it has almost no pitting or serious wear anywhere. It retains 85% coverage of a fine plum brown patina with 50% density. The overall look on this 1880 S/A is well above what one usually sees for an old cowboy Colt ….but suffice to say this (…and this is a VERY important fact!!)…that since many, if not most Single Actions have been restored, enhanced, and/or “juiced-up” to some degree, one should always take the possibility of some degree of restoration into consideration and this gun has been valued and priced with that possibility in mind. But the only thing that in MHO is a probable “collector upgrade” is the overall patina ….which is just TOO even and too dense to be totally original.There are a lot of photos (17) to this VERY desirable early Civilian S/A, so if they all don’t load up, just email me and I will directly forward them to you by return email. This is a real opportunity to own a really fine conditioned major piece of the Wild West frontier cartridge handgun …and one of the fastest value appreciators in the antique gun field.
