Payment Types Accepted: checks, cashiers/bank check, money order Description: MODEL 1909 U. S. ARMY .45 COLT NEW SERVICE REVOLVER, #43XXX. This was the last of the .45 Colt revolvers issued to our armed forces. It was replaced with the famed M-1911 .45ACP auto pistol soon after being introduced. Many, if not most, saw service in the Philippine Islands after the Spanish American War which lasted until 1915 as the Filipino-American War. This example was obviously issued and used, but cared for. The blue shows wear on the barrel sides and grip straps. The cylinder blue is thinning and stronger in the flutes. Frame shows good high polish blue with normal holster wear areas. All sharp markings, correct government inspector stamps including the RAC stamping on cylinder, frame and barrel. The barrel retains the important “UNITED STATES PROPERTY” stamping on the bottom- this marking often ground off. Fine walnut grips, lanyard ring intact, front sight has not been altered or filed. Fine correct U.S. Army 1909 markings on the butt with matching serial number to frame. Butt shows some dings. Mechanically extremely tight with no cylinder play. Exc. bright bore.
