SCARCE CASEY INSPECTED COLT CAVALRY SINGLE ACTION ARMY REVOLVER.

SN 16650. Cal. 45 Colt. Blue and color cased hardened with 7-1/2″ bbl, full front sight and 1-line block letter address. Left side of frame has partial 2-line patent dates and a partial “U.S.”. Ejector housing is 1st Type with bullseye ejector rod head. Base pin is a replacement without dimpled ends. Grip is a varnished civilian replacement with spurious matching pencil number in the backstrap channel. Left side of grip is crudely carved “WA” and right bottom edge of grip is carved with an “M” or “W”. The bbl and cylinder show last 4 digits of matching SN. Bbl, trigger guard, backstrap and cylinder have small “C” (A. P. Casey) sub-inspector initials. Casey inspected Cavalry revolvers are some of the more scarce to find. CONDITION: Fair to good, matching numbers as noted above. Overall retains a high quality restored finish with the bbl showing 30-40% blue with scattered fine pitting. Frame retains about 60% faded case colors and the hammer dark case colors. Cylinder is mostly a blue/brown patina on the outer diameter with blue in the flutes. Trigger guard and backstrap retain 50-60% thin blue. Grip has a chipped left toe and shows moderate to heavy edge wear with about 20% orig varnish. All the screws are replacements, probably at the time of refinish. Hammer is not solid in safety notch, otherwise mechanics are fine. Strong bore with moderate to heavy pitting. 52930-2 (4,000-6,000) – Lot 3015
