Colt 1878 .45 Cal SN: 12329
'Frontier' Nickeled plated double action six-shot revolver chambered in 45 Colt, circa 1884. Features a 7.5" barrel, ejector rod, blade front sight, v-notch rear sight, fire blued hammer & trigger, fluted cylinder, swing-out loading gate, lanyard loop and checkered Colt hard rubber bird's head grips. Includes a Lawrence brown leather belt loop holster. Finish retains 88% original nickel plating with few losses, small dark areas emerging on cylinder & ejector rod housing and rust above right grip panel. Markings are sharp, action works well in double action but hammer fails to lock in the cocked position in single action, bore is excellent and grips are fine. Condition is near excellent as antique. ***Antique Firearm***
