Colt Single Action Army .45 Colt SN: 278242
Colt Single Action Army Revolver in .45 Colt caliber nickel plated with pearl grips and shipped to Copper Queen Consolidated Mining Co., Bisbee, Territory of Arizona July 6, 1906 with factory letter confirming all features. This Colt retains 30%-50% original nickel with scattered light to heavy pitting. The backstrap is numbered 246845 and appears to have been with this Colt it's entire life. Good address and visible patent dates. The front sight has been slimmed slightly. Caliber marking 75% visible. The grips are good with small losses and imperfections. The action is working but safety notches removed. Good bore. Very few copper Queen Colts are factory nickel with factory pearl and desirable to be shipped in Arizona territorial era pre-statehood when the West was not quite yet won! Factory letter included. *C&R Firearm*
