Description

This is a beautifully made copy of a standard Colt Model 1860 Army that was cut for a shoulder stock. The serial number is 111 and matches that on the miniature 1851 Navy in this sale. The gun is 6.5″ in overall length with a 4″ round barrel. The frame, hammer and loading lever are case colored; the barrel, cylinder and backstrap are blued; and the one-piece walnut grip is piano-finished. The mechanism functions like the original, however the gun does not actually fire. The mahogany case has a couple of small blemishes, the revolver is like new. RRAuction COA.
