Manufactured in 1907. The top of the barrel is marked with the two-line address, "COLT FRONTIER SIX SHOOTER" on the left side and the left side of the frame is marked with the two-line, three-patent dates followed by the circled Rampant Colt. Blade front and frame notch rear sights, blue finish with casehardened frame and fitted with checkered hard rubber grips with the Rampant Colt in an oval at the top. The accompanying factory letter verifies the caliber, barrel length, blue finish with the grips as "Not Listed" and that it was shipped as 1 of 12 to Krakauer, Zork & Moye Company in El Paso, Texas on June 7, 1907.

Very good. The revolver retains traces of original blue finish and strong original case colors in protected areas with a smooth brown and gray patina on the balance. The grips are good with some wear on the lower edges, overall handling wear and distinct checkering. The markings are clear. The action is fine.
