Description:
VERY EARLY COLT NEW SERVICE, .38-40, 7 1/2" BARREL, #17XXX, MADE 1907. This is a fairly scarce combination as most .38-40 caliber Colts (Single Action Army also) were made in the shorter barrel lengths. This example has all the correct markings including the last patent date on the barrel of 1900 and the rampant colt stamping on the left side of the frame being circular with COLT'S NEW SERVICE in a circle around the horse. Shows normal light holster wear with some thinning blue to silver on the barrel sides, some thinning on the cylinder and grip strap wear. The back of the hammer shows nice fire blue, grips are excellent, nice blue on the frame with a little thinning mainly on the left rear portion. Lanyard swivel intact, very tight action with perfect, no movement lock up of the cylinder. Bright excellent bore, front sight has not been altered and only the ejector rod tip appears to be a replacement. A really attractive and scarce variant 116 year old Colt New Service!
