serial #1, 22 RF, 3 11/16'' four-barrel cluster with partially bright very good bore showing some scattered old oxidation and good rifling throughout. This is a rather long-barreled copy, the barrels retaining generous remnants of original blue toning to a pleasant deep blue-gray patina overall. The only markings appear to be the stamped ''1'' on the underside barrels and forward frame. The frame shows remnants of bright gold wash that is flaking to pale ocher brass and showing some scattered light handling marks. The smooth walnut grips remain in very fine condition with strong original varnish, some edge wear and light handling marks. The barrels lock up well with button release similar to the Sharps Model 1 and the action seems to function well mechanically with properly rotating nose. (13A11802-4) {ANTIQUE} (700/900)
