Description: US COLT Model 1878/1902 PHILIPPINE CONSTABULARY Double Action C&R Revolver
Philippine-American War MORO FIGHTERS Inspired
Here we present a C&R Colt Model 1878/1902 Philippine Constabulary Double Action Revolver, made circa 1900 in Hartford, Connecticut. Out of the 51,210 Model 1878 revolvers made, 4,600 were made for the United States Ordnance Department between 1900 and 1902 and known as the “Philippine” or “Alaskan” models. They were intended to equip the Philippine Constabulary in the Philippine Insurrection. All of these 4,600 revolvers were chambered in .45 Long Colt and had 6 inch barrels. It is a modified version of the Colt 1878 Double Action Army or Frontier model pistol. The U.S. Army had tested the Model 1878 in 1879 and rejected it largely because of problems with light primer strikes. Many years later, experience in the Philippines would lead the government to seek .45 caliber revolvers for issue to the Philippine Constabulary.
Colt jumped this opportunity by fitting a stronger hammer spring to the 1878 revolver and lengthening the trigger to give the shooter more leverage on the correspondingly heavier trigger. The trigger guard was also enlarged, as necessary to fit the lengthened trigger. And, the changes worked. The government purchased 4600 of the guns for use in the Philippines in 1902. While many assume that the .45 revolver acquired in response to the Moro fighters’ fighting spirit was the 1873 Single Action Army, it was actually the 1878/1902! The revolver has “JTT” and RAC” inspection markings for Ordnance Inspectors Captain John T. Thompson and Rinaldo A Carr.
The overall condition is good. Original patina throughout. The action (hammer/trigger) is strong and the cylinder indexes and locks up, but there is a good bit of side to side play in the lockup. The bore is in good condition with good rifling. The grips show wear and remain solid.
