c1920 Post-WORLD WAR I Era U.S. Army COLT Model 1917 .45 Cal. C&R Revolver
.45 Long Colt Customized Sidearm
Here we present a C&R U.S. Colt Model 1917 double action revolver, made in 1920 in Hartford, Connecticut. The M1917 Revolvers were six-shot, .45 ACP, large frame revolvers adopted by the United States Military in 1917, to supplement the standard .45 ACP Model 1911 pistol during World War I. There were two variations of the M1917, one made by Colt and the other made by Smith & Wesson.
Colt had until recently produced a revolver for the U.S. Army called the M1909, a version of their heavy-frame, .45-caliber, New Service model in .45 Long Colt to supplement and replace a range of 1890s-era .38 caliber Colt and Smith & Wesson revolvers that had demonstrated inadequate stopping power during the Philippine–American War. The Colt M1917 Revolver was essentially the same as the M1909 with a cylinder bored to take the .45 ACP cartridge and the half-moon clips to hold the rimless cartridges in position.
The overall condition is fine. Refinished in nickel. The barrel is a lengthy custom replacement. The action is excellent. The numbers on the frame and crane match. The grips show use and remain solid. The interior of the grips are both marked in pencil “245806 U.S.M.C.”
This firearm is classified as a Curio & Relic.
Barrel is 8-1/4 inches.
