First Generation Colt Single Action Army Revolver

Manufactured in 1919. Fixed sights, with "32 W.C.F." on the left side of the barrel, one-line Hartford address on top, and the two-line, three-date patents next to the uncircled Rampant Colt on the frame. Matching numbers are present on the grip frame and cylinder, with a pair of checkered and matching hand-numbered Rampant Colt imprinted grips.

ConditionVery good, with 30% of the blue finish, showing areas of brown and gray patina, scattered spotting, and light handling marks overall. A few patches of deeper pitting are present in the worn areas, and the barrel and ejector housing show a number of dings. Bright case colors can be seen on the protected areas of the frame and hammer, with much of the surface having faded. The replacement grips are good, with some light nicks and dings. The hammer sits low in the safety notch, otherwise mechanically fine.
