Second Gen. Colt Model 1848 3rd Model Dragoon Percussion Army Revolver, #30101, .44 cal., 7.5'' round-to-octagonal barrel with low-blade front sight, marked ''Address. Saml Colt New-York City'' on top flat; 6-shot round cylinder has the rolled ''Rangers and Indians'' fight scene, and ''Model U.S.M.R.'' and ''Colt's Patent'' in fancy scrolled panels with ''30101'' between; case hardened hammer, lever and frame with ''Colts/Patent'' in tiny letters on left side; brass backstrap and rounded trigger guard; oil-finished one-piece smooth walnut grips. Condition is new and unfired. Barrel and cylinder (with pristine safety pins on back) retain 100% deep blue (cylinder with light drag line); frame, lever and hammer have subtle but fiery case colors; brass with light toning; grips are smooth and unmarked. Action is very strong and crisp; bore is brilliant with sharp rifling, and retains all its original blue, as do the cylinder bores. Est.: $500-$700. (No FFL Required)
