Antique Colt 1877 “Lightning” .38 Revolver
Description: Antique Colt 1877 “Lightning” .38 Revolver Double Action Revolver Made in 1898 Here we present an antique Colt 1877 Lightning Double Action Revolver, made in 1898 in Hartford, Connecticut. The Model 1877 was Colt’s first venture into double action revolvers. It was quite successful, selling 166,849 from 1877 through 1909, primarily in .38 and .41 calibers. Nonetheless, there was some hesitation to move away from the single action mechanism, which had so proven itself. Famous adopters of the Lightning were William “Billy the Kid” Bonney and John Wesley Hardin, two legendary names of the American West. The barrel is marked “COLT D.A. 38” on the left side. It is marked “COLT’S PT. F.A. MFG. CO./HARTFORD CT. U.S.A.” Patent dates of 1871, 74 and 75 are located on the left side of the frame. The hard rubber grips bear the iconic rampant colt. The overall condition is very good. The metal surfaces bear a gray patina. The markings are clear and legible. The serial numbers match. The trademarked hard rubber grips are in nice condition. The bore is in good shape. The action is excellent. Here is a great example of one of the favorite Colts of the 19th Century! Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 4-1/2 inches. Caliber: .38 Colt Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE. Delivered directly to your door by express mail! Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $1600 #7389 SOLD Antique: Yes |
