SCARCE COLT HARTFORD ARMY CONTRACT MODEL 1851 NAVY PERCUSSION REVOLVER.

SN 78911. Cal. 36. Nice honest example of an all matching, complete and orig military purchased Colt Navy in standard configuration just prior to Civil War.

Gun retains tiny traces of finish in protected areas. All matching SNs. Iron is a mottled grey overall with crisp markings and crisp 1-line Hartford address. Each grip has cartouche though only discernible in outline. Each metal part has sub-inspector initials stamped. Gun saw honest use but is still mechanically crisp with good bore and portions of discernible rolled cylinder scene. 52438-22 JS (3,000-4,000) – Lot 3460
