Colt Single Action Army revolver, .44 rimfire cal., New York style scroll engraved, carved ivory grips showing Mexican snake and eagle; barrel reduced to approximately 5-3/8", traces of original nickel finish, serial#1225. Only a handful of original engraved .44 rimfire Colts are known, and this pistol is well known to collectors and was originally in an old Texas collection for decades. The metal surfaces show carry andholster wear, the engraving very worn; the grips also worn almost all the way down. Only a trace of patent dates are visible, the barrel address is good; the sight is repositioned during use, and the left side of the muzzle is worn from being holstered. The firing pin is an old handmade replacement, the slot in the frame is unopened. Matching frame, trigger guard and backstrap; no number visible on cylinder dueto heavy use. The action is good, the bore is fair. If you like western character, this is the gun for you as it looks wonderful in the holster. Est.: $5,000-$10,000
