1883 mfr. BRITISH PROOFED Antique COLT NEW LINE .32 Self Defense Revolver
SHARP Potent .32 CF Conceal & Carry Hideout Gun
Here Ancestry Guns presents an antique London Proofed Colt New Line .32 Revolver, made in 1883 in Hartford, Connecticut. A single action revolver, this small pocket revolver was one of a number of inexpensive handguns produced by Colt from 1873 to 1884. The “New Line” was Colt’s first production model handgun chambered for .32 caliber.
This revolver utilized a .32 caliber cartridge matched to a 5-shot fluted cylinder fitted to a 2-1/4” long round barrel. About 22,000 were produced in this caliber. This revolver was designed to be a small but potent self-defense revolver for stowing in one’s pocket in the 19th Century. Spur Trigger manufacture was fierce during this time, and Colt struggled to compete against the countless small shops making very similar, less expensive revolvers, though not necessarily of the same quality. The Colt remained a steady, reliable force in firearms for much longer than the rest.
This revolver features 5 shots of .32 caliber, a handsome nickel finish and rosewood grips. The top of the barrel reads “COLT’S PT. F. A. MFG. CO./HARTFORD CT USA”.
The overall condition is fine. Original finish. Excellent action. The bore is bright with strong rifling. Both grips are fine. Sharp markings.
Here is a very handsome and collectible specimen of the Colt New Line .32!
