Manufactured in 1882, this was the final revolver in the New Line series. The top of the barrel is marked with the two line address and the acid etched panel "NEW POLICE 38" on the left side. The left side of the frame is marked "38 CAL" and the serial number appears on the butt. Blade front and frame notch rear sights, smooth niter blue spur trigger and checkered hammer (with polished sides), blue screws, cylinder pin and release. "Bullseye" style ejector rod head and fitted with checkered hard rubber grips embossed with the "cop and thug" on the bottom and "COLT" in an oval at the top. Colt only manufactured about 4,000 New Police Revolvers from 1882 to 1886.

Fine. The revolver retains 40% original blue finish with a mottled brown patina on the barrel, edge wear, scattered thinning and a smooth mottled gray patina on the back strap. Most of the bright niter blue finish remains on the hammer. The grips are very good with moderate handling wear and distinctive checkering. The action is fine.
