Rare Colt Bisley Model Frontier Six Shooter Single Action Revolver

Manufactured in 1907. One line Hartford address on top of the barrel and "(BISLEY MODEL)/COLT FRONTIER SIX SHOOTER" on the left side. The left side of the frame has the two line, three date patent marking followed by a circled Rampant Colt. The left side of the trigger guard has the Colt triangle proof and the number "6". Matching serial number on the frame, trigger guard and back strap with the assembly number "468" on the loading gate. Wide, low hammer spur with smooth wide trigger and characteristic "humpback" grip. Fitted with checkered hard rubber grips with the Rampant Colt in an oval at the top.

ConditionFine. The revolver retains 50% original blue finish with a smooth gray patina on the balance. The cylinder shows a heavy drag line and cycling scratches. The frame and hammer retain 25% of original case colors in and around the protected areas, otherwise the balance has faded to a silver-gray patina. The grips are very fine with a few minor handling marks and overall crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent. The front sight is slightly modified. The markings are crisp and clear.
