*COLT MODEL 1877 DA LIGHTNING REVOLVER.

*COLT MODEL 1877 DA LIGHTNING REVOLVER. SN 163375. Cal. 38 Colt. Blue & color case hardened with 6″ bbl, half moon front sight and 2-line address with model & caliber markings on left side. Left side of frame has 3-line patent dates and the rampant Colt in a broken circle. Mounted with 2-pc rampant Colt hard rubber grips that have the last three digits of SN, in pencil, on the inside. While this particular model of Colt was produced in fairly large numbers, it is most unusual to find one with high orig condition. They were very popular on the American frontier and other areas of the world among people from all walks of life from bankers & lawmen to outlaws & prostitutes due to their convenient size, double action capability with a reasonably hard hitting cartridge. It has been often reported that the notorious outlaw, William Bonney, AKA William Antrim and better known as Billie the Kid favored this model of Colt.

Overall retains about 98-99% strong orig factory finish with glossy bright blue and brilliant case colors. Trigger and top & rear edges of hammer retain about all of their bright fire blue. Chambers & bore retain about all of their orig factory blue indicating that this revolver is probably new & unfired. Left side of trigger guard and one small area on cyl are lightly flaked. Grips are crisp showing no wear. Bottom of bbl has a series of small nicks from some incompetent person removing the face pin. Mechanics are crisp, brilliant shiny bore. 4-42283 JR19 (6,000-8,000)
