serial #923170, 38 Special, 6" tapered heavy barrel with an excellent bore. This beautiful 1959-made revolver may have been later converted to single action only. The metal surfaces retain about 98% high polish blue with light edge wear at the muzzle and very light turn ring on the cylinder. The barrel, cylinder and extractor star have factory rework numbers (501) and the deep lustrous blue is likely a factory refurbish. The Rampant Colt is crisp on the sideplate, which is numbered to the gun, but barrel markings are slightly soft. The hammer and lockwork are interesting, the double action sear was removed and the hammer has an internal relief cut below the rear arch making it a lightweight hammer. To prevent from over-cocking the hammer a blind screw was installed on the frame and the head modified to fit into the relief cut. The finish and workmanship is factory quality and appears original. The checkered walnut factory service style grips with silver Colt medallions rate excellent and only bear matching assembly numbers. This fifth issue revolver is equipped with factory Patridge front sight and Accro adjustable rear sight exhibiting excellent timing and lock up. A factory letter dated March 11, 2014 indicates this gun was shipped on June 9, 1959 as described above except there is no mention of it shipping as the rarely-seen single action only variation. The gun was shipped to E.K. Pote, R.D. #1, Elverson, Pennsylvania along with one other gun. The gun includes an unlabeled and un-serial numbered Colt two-piece woodgrain box that rates about good to very good with edge wear, storage marks, repairs on all corners of the cover and a couple on the base, plus the "Colt" logo on the cover has faded. There is a little mystery to the source of this revolver's single action only mode but it is still a real beauty. (88467-2) {C&R}
