Offered for sale is a early rare Colt Open Top Pocket Model .22 Cal Spur Trigger revolver. The rare revolver shows the two line Hartford Colt address and was manufactured from 1875. This revolver features a 7 shot cylinder, spur trigger, 2 3/8" barrel, and brass frame and walnut grips. The earliest examples were shipped with a 2 718" barrel, an attached ejector rod housing and a high hammer rotile. Most were plated, some were blue'd and plated. Factory engraved specimens of this configuration are very rare. Colt reduced the length of the barrels to 2-3/8" but retained the ejector housing. After a short period the .22 was redesigned and the ejector housing was omitted. Eventually, the high hammer profile was replaced with a lower profile. This revolver is in good condition for its age, showing a patina on the barrel and cylinder with a light patina to brass frame, dark bore, visible faded markings and good grips. The cylinder and trigger are locked up but the hammer can be cocked back. The firearm comes with a lightweight wooden box. This box has a red felt interior and partitions. The revolver was manufactured in 1875. Serial Number: 55403. This firearm qualifies as an Antique, and does not require FFL Transfer or NICS Background Check.
