serial #480, 44-40, 3 1/4'' barrel with a mostly bright about very fine bore showing some scattered oxidation speckles and light pinprick pitting with otherwise strong rifling throughout. The metal surfaces of this very attractive open top revolver retain about 94% original nickel finish showing some scattered small flakes toning to gray-brown patina and minor oxidation speckling, mostly along the gripstraps and right side of frame. The hammer, triggerguard and other small parts are toning to a pleasant mix of silvery and smoky gray case-hardened patina, the more protected areas of the triggerguard with generous wisps of case-hardened colors. All markings remain crisp and clear and the black checkered hard rubber grips remain in excellent condition showing a hint of subtle edge wear. This revolver features the distinctive ''skull crusher'' grip frame and scooped flute cylinder and all of the numbered parts are matching by assembly number. Barrel-to-frame fit is solid and the action seems to function well mechanically with a crisp hammer and solid timing and lock-up. This is a very fine example of a desirable early Pocket Army revolver for the antique arms collector. (13B11732-23) {ANTIQUE} (3000/4000)
