Description:
.45 caliber Colt SAA Artillery Model with 5 1/2 barrel. The barrel is marked “Colt’s Pt. F.A. Mfg. Co. Hartford, Ct, U.S.A.”. The underside of the barrel is marked  “P” and 1427. The left side of the frame is marked “Pat. Sept. 19. 1871 / Pat. July. 2. - 72. Jan. 19. - 75.” and “U.S.” The outside of the cylinder is marked with the year 1909 and the inspector mark D.F.C. There is a “S” above the firing pin hole on the back of the frame. The assembly number “614” is on the loading gate. The back strap and  trigger guard are numbered “82762”. The frame is numbered "82839" and marked with a D.F.C. The left side of the one-piece walnut grip is stamped with the year 1901 and a OWA cartouche. The firearm appears to have no original finish remaining and light pitting. The sight has been modified causing cut marks and file marks on the barrel. The bore is excellent. Bottom of the grips show signs of it being used to hammer staples or tacks. Comes with original US military leather holster. Holster marked D.B. Between 1895 and 1903, the government had nearly 17,000 of its SAAs reconditioned and rebuilt by the Springfield Armory and the Colt factory. Most of these guns had the barrels shortened to 5½". Since most guns were reassembled without concern for part numbers, this is one of the few collectible gun variations that is considered “correct” with mixed serial numbers-meaning that the various parts of the gun will usually not match each other.
