Description:
This is a U.S.F.A. Bisley Single Action. This revolver is chambered for the .38 Special cartridge, has a 4-3/4" barrel with ejector rod, and hard rubber grips. It is in excellent condition and features a bright blue finish with color case hardened frame and hammer. Please see the pictures for condition, the mechanics are in perfect working order and the bore is excellent. It comes in the original box, with the owner's manual, cardboard sleeve, and the USFA gun sock. I purchased this from the original owner, who custom ordered it following a personal tour of the factory. I have shot 200 rounds through it. This is an all American parts gun. I have a second pistol identical to this with the sequential serial number (26024) which will be offered at the same price to the buyer of this gun. Buyer pays flat rate of $75 shipping (per gun). Price: $4,000.00

I actually found the original owners' description of these pistols to me when I purchased them and have added it below:
"In about 2008 I had the opportunity to work for a week in the Hartford area. I called USFA and arranged to take a tour of the factory. I was met at the door by a gentleman named Gary, who I believe was the manager. He took me around the operation, showing each step of the process at that time. Every part for the SAA, except for one screw, was made in-house, and they were planning to set up to make that screw. Also, I recall also seeing some of the Lightning rifles at the factory. At the end of the tour, Gary pointed out an elderly man at the handgun assembly area and told me he had been a former employee of the colt custom shop and had worked to teach many of the USFA employees. At the end of the tour I told Gary that I would order a pair of Bisley USFA‘s if he would see to it that they were fitted by the former Colt employee. I purchased a pair of Bisley Premium grade guns with consecutive serial numbers. They have 4.5 inch barrels in .38 Special. The guns have plastic grips, bright blue and outstanding case color. The guns were shipped to Jim Finch at Long Hunter Guns to polish up for SASS shooting. I shot them in two matches, there is a tiny bit of wear at the muzzle. Since then they have been in the safe and are in Beauty Queen condition.
