Item Description: Translate description
serial #258977, 38 Special, 6'' barrel with a bright excellent bore. This low production First Issue was made in 1906, the First Issue revolvers only being made from 1904 to about 1908 and were based around the New Model Army & Navy revolver before the design was overhauled in 1908 and based around the Army Special model. The metal surfaces retain about 92% lovely original rich bright blue showing mild high edge wear and some scattered thin minor scratches and handling marks. The back edge of the circled Rampant Colt at rear left of frame is a bit soft but the finish is obviously original and all other markings are crisp. The screw heads, trigger, back surface of hammer and sights all show wonderful brilliant fire blue with just some minor edge wear and the checkering along the backstrap and trigger remains crisp. The ejector rod head shows fine case-hardened colors and the checkered walnut grips rate very fine with scattered lightly chipped points and minor dings. Both grips are pencil-numbered ''914'', the loading gate shows assembly number ''911'' and the crane and inside of the frame are matching ''565''. The head of the rear sight adjustment screw has broken and been lost to the years but this is the only real apology and the action is crisp and seems to function well mechanically. An interesting and seldom seen variant for the Colt collector. (13B11728-1558) {C&R} (1200/1800)
