Colt Various Cal: .36 SN; 10132
Nickel plated and blued single-action 5-shot revolver with a 4-1/2" barrel. A parts gun with barrel and frame having serial number 10132, nickel plated square-back brass trigger guard having number 10428, and grip frame having number 43992. Cylinder comes from an 1849 Pocket Revolver with a stagecoach hold-up scene engraving. Frame and barrel have patent dates of July 25, 1871 and July 2, 1872 and there is no accommodation for a loading lever. Plating on barrel and frame has worn off much of the steel leaving a scratched, pitted and dinged surface. The trigger guard retains most of its plating but has dings, scratches and edge wear. The backstrap has lost almost all of its pitting and is dinged and scratched. The hammer and loading gate are replacement home made pieces. Bore has the front sight protruding in and is rusty and pitted, as are the chambers. Hammer and trigger work well and the cylinder rotates but lock-up is poor. Grips don't fit and are worn with dings and scratches. Condition is poor. *Antique Firearm*
