Few firearms are more deeply associated with the American West than the Colt Single Action Army, with this example having the "been there" look. These revolvers were not only popular with western cowboys but also law enforcement throughout the country due to their rugged dependability and firepower. Manufactured in 1892, this revolver has the standard single line address on top of the barrel and the caliber marking on the left. The left of the frame has the two-line patent date marking followed by the circled Rampant Colt. The matching serial number is marked on the frame, trigger guard, and back strap, and the assembly number "94" is on the loading gate. The initials "L/W" have been marked on the butt, with the "L" inscribed backwards. It has standard features and is fitted with a pair of checkered hard rubber grips with Rampant Colt's at the top. The included factory letter confirms the current configuration (grips not listed) as well as shipment to Hibbard, Spencer, Bartlett & Co. in Chicago, Illinois, on 7 October 1892, a large distributor in the Midwest who sent many items farther west. Includes a later production tooled leather holster and gun belt which is marked "SALEM MO." on the rear outside of the belt.

Very good plus, retains 30% of the original blue finish and 20% of the original case colors with the balance mostly a smooth grey patina and a few scattered patches of light surface pitting. The grips are also fine showing moderate handling wear. Mechanically excellent. The holster and belt are fine showing some faint, attractive red-plum color and mild wear overall. This revolver and rig have the look of potentially having been carried by a Midwest lawmen or possibly carried farther west by someone wanting to remember their roots.
