Offered for sale is an original early Civil War Colt 1860 .44 Percussion Revolver manufactured in 1863. The revolver features a 8" barrel, 6 shot cylinder, walnut grips, brass trigger guard, and brass blade front sight, and hammer notch rear sight.

This example is complete and functioning. It has matching numbers on the back strap, trigger guard, frame and barrel. Overall it displays an attractive deep aged patina with no evidence of having been buffed, polished, steel-wooled or cleaned. Correct 8” barrel with sharp and clear Colt one line address on top, correct small front sight, attached loading lever functions correctly, one piece walnut grips fully intact and in excellent overall condition, This handsome revolver no doubt saw long service in the Civil War, yet remains today in fine condition with excellent, tight mechanics and without the usual signs of abuse most commonly seen on this model Colt. This revolver was manufactured in 1863. Serial Number: 120115. The revolver qualifies as an Antique Handgun, and does not require FFL Transfer or NICS Background Check.
