Colt Model 1878 Frontier Double Action Revolver

Manufactured in 1888. Two-line barrel address (faint) and matching assembly number "735" on the grip frame and loading gate.

ConditionVery good. 20% of original blue finish remain in and around the protected areas with the balance a mottled brown-gray patina. There is some scattered minor pitting. The grips are fine with a few moderate handling marks and crisp checkering overall. Mechanically fine.
