This is a great looking .44 caliber Colt Army revolver from the Civil War period. The serial number of 138792 places the production date of this pistol in 1863. This one is an all serial numbers matching gun with the exception of the wedge. The wedge is a Colt piece, but is serial numbered 1261. The barrel address reads "ADDRESS COL. SAMl COLT NEW - YORK U.S. AMERICA". The bore is in good condition with crisp rifling and no pitting present. The loading lever is fully functional. The cylinder scene is fantastic! The naval battle is clearly visible, the words engaged May 16 1843 and the patent date and serial number can all be read with the naked eye. The Colts Patent mark on the left side of the frame is very clear. The serial numbers on the back strap, trigger guard, frame, and wedge are clearly visible. The barrel serial number appears to be worn down but is still legible. The one piece walnut grips do not have a cartouche. All of the original varnish is missing, but the walnut still displays great! The right grip has a small chip missing from the bottom right corner. There are sub inspector marks on several areas of the revolver. The letter H is stamped on the bottom of the trigger guard. The letter D is stamped on the cylinder in two places, and on the right side of the barrel above the wedge. A double DD is stamped into the left side of the barrel to the rear of the wedge screw. Everything on the gun appears original. The cylinder still has some of the safety pins on the back. The action is crisp and locks up in half and full cock positions. The brass trigger guard has turned a dull yellow color. The remaining metal on the gun has achieved a dull silver/gray throughout. The overall condition of this Civil War revolver is good plus. Soldiers on both sides of the conflict made every effort to get their hands on one of these firearms, why should you be any different? An iconic piece of Civil War history at a price that won't break the bank!
