Manufactured in 1863-1864. This example has been converted to .44 Henry rimfire cartridge. The top strap of the frame has the standard markings. The serial number "930" is stamped on the underside of the barrel, the bottom of the loading lever, on the frame, on the back of the cylinder, on the back of the backing plate and on the right side of the butt strap under the grip. Fitted with smooth walnut two piece grips. This specific revolver is pictured and described on pages 424-427 of the book "A Study of Colt Conversion and Other Percussion Revolvers" by R. Bruce McDowell.

Good as period converted to cartridge and refinished. There are traces of blue finish on the hammer, loading lever and in the protected areas with a gray/brown patina on the balance. There are scattered scratches and dings overall. The grips are very good as revarnished. Mechanically needs work as cylinder does not rotate correctly.
