*COLT FRONTIER SIX SHOOTER SINGLE ACTION ARMY REVOLVER. SN 183974. Cal. 44 WCF (44-40). Blue & color cased hardened with 7-1/2″ bbl, full front sight, 1-line block letter address and “COLT FRONTER SIX SHOOTER” roll marking on left side. Bottom of bbl has a tiny “44” under the base pin. Left side of frame has 2-line, 3-patent dates and Rampant Colt in a broken circle. Mounted with Rampant Colt hard rubber grips that have the initials “R” carved inside the right grip and “HF” inside left grip. Accompanied by a Colt factory letter which identifies this revolver in cal. 44-40 with 7-1/2″ bbl, blue finish, type of stocks not listed and shipped to Rector & Wilhelmy Co., Omaha, NE on Mar. 3, 1899 in a 1-gun shipment. Having been shipped to a Western address, such as Omaha, when the area was still rough & wild with outlaws and lawmen carrying six-shooters such as this one, it is almost certain that this revolver would have been used by one of these frontier men, outlaw, law enforcement or a rancher/cowboy. CONDITION: Very good. Bbl retains about 60% thinning orig blue, glossy & bright in sheltered areas, showing heavy holster wear with some fine pinprick pitting; frame retains strong case colors in the front gullets, faded to silver elsewhere with some fine pinprick pitting; cyl is mostly a silver/grey patina with dark blue & light rust in the flutes; trigger guard and back strap retain blue in sheltered areas, being mostly a grey/brown patina. Left grip has a chip out of the heel, otherwise grips are sound and show moderate to heavy wear; hammer will not catch in the safety or half cock notches, otherwise mechanics are fine, strong bore with moderate pitting. 4-47778 JR290 (5,000-8,000)
