ELEGANT MASTER ENGRAVED COLT THUNDERER REVOLVER WITH RARE 2″ BARREL.

SN 15535. Cal. 41. 2″ bbl. Manufactured 1880 this master engraved Colt Thunderer with 1-pc ivory grips that are numbered internally to match has what amounts to be a full coverage of scroll and foliate engraving with a dot punch background. 2″ bbl has the appropriate half moon blade front sight with the desirable 2-line Colt’s address on left side of bbl where traditionally the caliber designation would reside. 3-line patent date on left side of frame. Left side of trigger guard at rear has caliber designation of .41 cal. Engraving amounts to what would be full coverage inclusive of backstrap, cylinder, bbl, frame and loading gate. The two inch bbl has always been considered the most desirable length and one of the ultimate rarities in Colt ’77 pattern revolvers. PROVENANCE: The spectacular collections of Ray Bentley featuring the finest and rarest deluxe antique Winchesters in the world. CONDITION: Very good overall with fine mechanics and all visible numbers matching. Bore is somewhat frosted but in no way detracts from the gun. One piece ivory grips have acquired a very mellow aged appearance with several very appealing age cracks emanating from butt. An extremely desirable variation of the Colt Thunderer revolver.
