OD - VERY GOOD- all original parts; none to 30% original finish; original metal surfaces smooth with all edges sharp; clear lettering, numerals and design on metal; wood slightly scratched or bruised.

Description:

These are fairly rare with only 18,000 manufactured c. 1865-1873 compared around 48,000 of the Colt Model 1862 Police revolvers they competed against. Many of these revolvers were also converted for metallic cartridges which has limited the number of original percussion examples in circulation. A brown leather holster with tooled designs is included. The holster is very good with minor wear.
