Description:
An excellent blue and case colored Colt .44-40 with a nice sharp etched panel and original eagle grips, serial #128XXX. The gun shows all its original parts, all matching numbers, showing about 90% of its original finish with approx. 30% still bright, the rest a grey brown patina. Case colors showing on frame and hammer have an attractive muted patina. All markings are correct for the era of this gun and the etched panel is vivid and fully readable. The barrel shows some slight holster wear and minor knackering on the bottom at the cylinder pin area and the front sight has been reduced slightly. The mechanics are good and the bore very good. The grips are original, fit perfect, and only show one spot of slight wear on the right side. Inside the left grip is scratched “Boit (bought) July 4, 1889” and “$14” in two places. A factory letter (included) states: "The records indicate that it was manufactured circa 1889, but the individual shipping record was lost or destroyed many years ago". This is a great gun, 100% correct, and seldom found in this condition in a blue and case colored configuration.
