Item Details
U.S. marked Colt Single Action Army Artillery Model. Originally an early DFC inspected Cavalry model issued in 1882, this Colt was returned to the factory where it was disassembled along with many other original Cavalry Colts. All parts were inspected for suitability of reuse. Barrels were shortened to 5 1/2" and then parts were reassembled to form complete guns without regard to matching of serial numbers. These newly assembled guns were issued to artillery units in 1901. The serial number on the frame is 84291 and was inspected by David F. Clark. The trigger guard is #5944 with a tiny "A" marked below it indicating inspection by Orville W. Ainsworth who also inspected and marked the backstrap which is #311. Also featuring an Ainsworth inspectors mark is the cylinder which bears a four digit number 3274. This scarcely seen early cylinder does not have the approaches cut before the bolt notches and is the earliest style cylinder from the first few thousand production. The one piece wood grips are under sized and are likely later replacements. They do bear the proper inspector cartouches from 1901 when the revolver was reissued to the troops. The action is tight and functions properly. The bore is excellent as are the barrel address and patent dates. The barrel and cylinder retain most of their restored bluing with the balance of the gun being a mixture of blue and patina. Slight traces of case colors are found on the frame with the rest a dark patina
