Desirable Colt Bisley Model Frontier Six Shooter Single Action Army Revolver

Manufactured in 1909. The top of the desirable 7 1/2 inch barrel is marked with the one-line Hartford address, and "(BISLEY MODEL)/COLT FRONTIER SIX SHOOTER" is on the left side. The two-line, three patent date markings is on the left side of the frame followed by the circled Rampant Colt. The upper left front of the trigger guard is marked with the Colt triangle "VP" proof with "W" at the rear. The matching serial number is marked on the bottom of the frame, trigger guard and back strap, and the assembly number "723" is marked on the loading gate. The partial serial number "8467" is scratched into the inside of both grip panels. Casehardened hammer and frame with blue remaining parts, standard blade front and frame notch rear sights, and fitted with checkered hard rubber grips with the Rampant Colt in an oval at the top.

Rating definitionExtremely fine with 85% bright original high polish blue finish remaining, showing some thinning on the muzzle end of the barrel, cylinder and grip straps. There are a few minor scratches visible on the trigger guard. The frame retains 80% plus original vivid case colors with a smooth mottled brown patina on the balance. The hammer shows 90% of the original bright case colors with a smooth gray patina on the top. The sharp original grips have slightly faded to brown and remain excellent with a few minor handling marks and crisp checkering. The markings are clear. The action locks up tight and functions fine. If you wanted to own one 44-40 Colt Bisley and not break the bank, here it is!
