Description:
Presented here is a Colt U.S. Army Model 1901 double action service revolver chambered in .38 Long Colt caliber. The Colt M1892 Navy and Army was the first general issue double-action revolver with a swing out cylinder used by the U.S. military. In 1892, the revolver was adopted by the United States Army chambered for .38 Long Colt cartridges, and was given the appellation "New Army and Navy". Initial experience with the gun caused officials to request some improvements. This would be an ongoing condition, resulting in Models 1892, 1894, 1896, 1901, and 1903 for the Army, as well as a Model 1895 for the Navy and a Model 1905 Marine Corps variant. This particular example is in good overall condition with the finish having worn to a handsome warm grey patina. Mechanical function is very good with a smooth and sure tihgt action. Period correct RAC inspection marks are still visible. The grips have some pressure marks but are still in good condition. The lanyard loop has been cut off and the remaining threaded portion has been smoothed down to be flush with the butt of the frame. This fine US Army Colt would make a great addition to a collection or a strong start to a new collection.
