Description:
This is a very nice Revolver! Made in 1897. The Colt Archive Letter  will accompany this revolver. (see last pic.) Serial #171813, 45 Colt, 7 1/2'' barrel with a bright excellent bore. This is a very handsome Colt Single Action that was redone at some point by the factory. The barrel and ejector rod housing retain 98 to near 99% original blue, the only true loss being some very light left side muzzle wear, also showing a widely scattered sparse spot of surface oxidation here or there, the barrel likely a more-modern replacement from the time of the factory refinish. The triggerguard, grip frame and cylinder retain a similar amount of blue, again with perhaps the sparsely scattered surface oxidation spot here or there, but they are unobtrusive, the triggerguard showing a minor scratch. The frame remains lovely with 99% factory color case-hardening, again with a few speckles of light surface oxidation here or there. The bright-polished sides of the hammer remain brilliant and the gun seems to function flawlessly mechanically. The interior of the triggerguard, grip frame and face of cylinder are all stamped ''211'', being a Colt assembly code for internal use when an arm is disassembled and refinished. The checkered hard rubber Rampant Colt grips rate very fine showing only light wear, they fit perfectly and are un-numbered. A beautiful antique Colt revolver made in 1897 that appears very nearly as-new following its factory refinish.  Buyer pays $20.00 shipping to the lower 48 states.  I accept USPS Money Orders or Bank Cashier's Check.
