Class: Antique
Description:

Very few Colt New House revolvers were manufactured for .32 centerfire ammunition. The vast majority were either .38 or .41 caliber. This example was manufactured in 1884 and has the two-line address on top of the barrel, standard fixed blade and groove sights, and replacement checkered grips with "COLT" embossed at the tops.

Rating Definition:

Fine. 40% of the bright original high polish blue finish remains, and there is deep brown patina and some patches of light to moderate pitting on the balance. The grips are undersized but in fine condition and display mild storage wear and some small chips. The action functions excellently, and the markings are mostly legible.
