All factory markings are in excellent condition. A simple Patridge-style sight has been neatly welded at the rear of the topstrap. The two-piece stag grips are in fine condition, fit well, and have great color. An old brown leather floral-carved double loop holster is included. The holster is in fine condition and has the stamped trademark of “BIFFAR / CHICAGO.” This good looking Colt was made in 1906.
