serial #20754, 45 Colt, 4 3/4'' barrel with a mostly bright very good bore showing some scattered light pitting and strong rifling throughout. The metal surfaces retain about 50-60% original bright blue flaking to a mix of medium gunmetal and mild gray-brown patina with scattered old dings and some small areas of pinprick pitting from honest use. The small parts retain some hints of fire blue and all markings remain intact and strong. The black checkered hard rubber grips with Rampant Colts remain in very good plus condition showing some mild overall smoothing and toning to brown. The cylinder is matching the frame and the action seems to function well mechanically in both single and double action. The included factory letter indicates the revolver shipped as-described on January 7, 1888 to Manzanares & Co. of Las Vegas, New Mexico Territory in a 25-gun shipment. This is an honest big frame double action with a desirable and romantic frontier shipping destination. (13B11523-107) {ANTIQUE} [Jim Thrash Collection] (2000/3000)
