Colt Single Action Army .44-40 SN: 3137WC
'Third Generation' Embellished single action six-shot revolver chambered in .44-40 Winchester, manufactured circa 1984. The embellishments, serial number suffix, and configuration (with exception to the cylinder & grips) are consistent with the S.A.A.s in the “Winchester-Colt Commemorative Set". It is most likely that this revolver was an overrun of the commemorative set. Features a blued & case hardened finish, 7 1/2" barrel with old style single line address & gold embellishments, blade front sight, square notched rear sight, bulls-eye ring ejector, fluted cylinder with pressed bushing, smooth thin trigger, hammer with polished flats & knurled spur, ‘blackpowder’ frame, gold “Col. Sam Colt” on the backstrap, and two-piece faux-stage grips. Matching serial numbers are found on the frame and cylinder. Revolver retains approximately 97% of its original finish showing light wear and some red residue on the cylinder. Action appears mechanically sound though the hammer spring seems light, lock-up is very good, the bore is very good, and the synthetic grips are very good. Condition is NRA Very Good. From the Jim Lockwood, Legends of Leather Prescott, AZ Collection. ***Modern Firearm***
