C439 COLT MODEL 1871-72 OPEN TOP REVOLVER IN 44 RF CALIBER WITH HOLSTER; 7-1/2 inch round barrel chambered in 44 Rim Fire caliber with a good bore that has visible rifling and a few scattered spots of pitting. Front sight has been filed down and the “ADDRESS COL. SAM COLT, NEW YORK, U.S. AMERICA” barrel address is just barely visible. There is a shim between the barrel and frame. Some screws are buggered up a bit. The cylinder is just slightly out of time otherwise it mechanically functions. Appears to be an old applied brown finish over the metal surfaces. This Colt features the Army Grip frame which borrowed from the Colt 1860 Army percussion model. The walnut grip has some handling marks and a few chips. Comes with a period leather holster that is in fair condition as well as a Colt Factory Letter stating that it was shipped on March 15, 1875, to J.P. Moores Sons in New York City as part of a 20 gun shipment and confirms the .44 RF caliber and blue finish. Barrel length and type of grip not listed. Only about 7,000 Model 1871-1872 Open Top revolvers were manufactured from 1871-1872 and are quite desirable as these were the forerunner to the Single Action Army.
