Very Fine World War I Era U.S. Colt Army Model 1917 Double Action Revolver

Manufactured in 1918, with fixed sights. The frame and crane are numbered on the inside sections "169771." The bottom of the grip frame is marked "U.S./ARMY/MODEL/1917" and "No/20/029."

ConditionVery fine, with 75% of the original blued finish retained, along with some holster wear on the sides of the barrel and patina focused around the grip frame. The walnut grips are fine, with some light handling marks and minor dents near the bottom, and a filled in chip on the left side panel. Mechanically excellent.
