7/9/24 - This is an excellent example of a Colt US single action artillery model. The action is tight as a drum and works perfectly on all 4 clicks. The frame is "US" property marked with various mixed military numbers. "DFC", "RAC" inspection stamps. There is also a tiny "A" military inspection stamp (for Ainsworth) just above the trigger guard (a bit hard to see). Manufactured in 1887. The right grip panel has a visible military inspection cartouche. Overall, it is in excellent condition for its age. Honest wear throughout. Some of the original case-hardening just barely visible on the frame. Some small dings on the butt of the frame and on the bottom edges of the grips. Mint bore.
