Description:
NICE 1883 Antique COLT Model 1877 “Lightning” .38 DA Revolver DOC HOLLIDAY
ICONIC Double Action Chambered in .38 Long Colt
Here we present an antique Colt 1877 Lightning Double Action Revolver, made in 1883 in Hartford, Connecticut. The Model 1877 was Colt’s first venture into double action revolvers. It was quite successful, selling 166,849 from 1877 through 1909. Nonetheless, there was some hesitation to move away from the single action mechanism, which had so proven itself. Famous adopters of the Lightning were William “Billy the Kid” Bonney and John Wesley Hardin, along with “Doc” Holliday. Doc’s weapon of choice early in his western career was an 1851 Colt Navy revolver. Later, Doc carried a nickel-plated .41 caliber Colt Thunderer or the .38 caliber Colt Lightning.
The overall condition is good. Strong action. The bore is bright. Both grips are in good shape with light handling wear. Legible markings. Numbers match. This example has been refinished in nickel. A rework star is present on the trigger guard.
