Description:
#5011 Colt S/A 7-1/2”x45COLT, 14XXX range (1875), fine bore with just some very light leading, and a smooth, tight action with all four clicks on the hammer. The metal is really nice for its age and well above average for what is basically a no-finish gun, and it has an even thin brown patina with almost no pitting or serious wear anywhere, just a very light roughless around the front sight. The one-piece original wood grips have been lightly cleaned slightly undersize but otherwise are really fine grips. The overall look is well above what one usually sees for such an early old cowboy Colt. However suffice to say this (…and this is a VERY important fact!!)…that since many, if not most Single Actions have been enhanced and/or “juiced-up” to some degree (especially the very highly sought after and desirable militaries), that one should always take the possibility of some degree upgrading from the many previous owners and this gun has been valued and priced with that possbility in mind, although in MY opinion, aside of the grips, this revolver looks pretty danged good and I don’t see anything that looks incorrect. There are a lot of photos to this VERY desirable and very early Civilian S/A, so if they all don’t load (there are about 20 in all), just email me and I will forward them to you by return email. This is a real opportunity to own a real early piece of the most coveted of all of the many Wild West frontier cartridge handguns, and one of the fastest value appreciator in the antique gun field.
