Serial no. 16636, caliber .44. The 7.5? part round/part octagonal barrel has a bore with strong rifling and even light pitting. This variation is one of the only 1200 to 1500 revolvers that have a frame cut for a shoulder stock and have the associated fourth frame screw. The top rear of the barrel is cut through the “NEW YORK” address for the installation of the factory folding leaf sight. All numbers match with the numbers on the cylinder and steel backstrap only partially legible, however, enough partial digits seem to be in the proper locations. The wedge is not numbered. The barrel address is good and the frame marking “COLT’S / PATENT / U.S.” is very clear. The steel surfaces have been cleaned and the metal has a light gray patina with minor fine pitting on the loading lever. The brass triggerguard retains strong traces of silver plating. The one piece walnut grip has been refinished and shows wear at the butt with a small chip at the toe and heel. The mechanism functions well. The end of the arbor has been remachined to tighten the barrel. This big Colt was made for the US Army in 1858.
This is an antique revolver and transfers with no federal restrictions.
