Description:

Used Collectible firearm in black softcase with gun sock.
For your consideration, a Colt U.S. Army Model 1901 D.A. 38 chambered in .38 Colt. This is one of the many upgrades of the Colt Model 1892 series of US Army Revolvers.These revolvers are more famous for their perceived shortcomings than for their success; They were widely disparaged for not having enough stopping power in combat during the Moro Rebellion in the Philippines. Never the less they were probably more potent than most of the military handguns of the period and they were still in active service along with the larger .45 caliber handguns through at least the end of WWI. The barrel is marked with the words “COLT’S PT. F. A. MFG CO HARTFORD CT U. S. A. PATENTED AUG. 5, 1884 NOV. 6, 88 MAR. 5, 95” and “COLT D.A. 38.” The cylinder latch is marked “K / 4614”. The frame that lies behind the cylinder is marked “L / 4614” and the extractor rod collar is marked “k / 4614”. The bottom of the grip strap, on either side of the lanyard ring is marked “US ARMY MODEL 1901” followed by the serial number. The left side of the frame, just above the grip, bears the initials “RAC.” “RAC” was Rinaldo A. Carr, the government inspector at Colt from 1890 to 1903.The left frame bears the L.E.B. cipher of Colt Inspector, Leroy E. Briggs, and the grips and cylinder breech face bear the R.A.C. cipher of Rinaldo A. Carr. Missing lanyard loop. This revolver, despite being more than 100 years old, remains fully functional for those who wish to test it out at the range and it doubles as a unique historical item for collectors.
