Project Description
!!!!!SOLD!!!!! This is a 47% scale Colt single action army revolver model of 1873 with 5 1/2″‘ barrel, black powder frame, & charcoal blue & case colored finish. These are often called the “Peacemaker” or “Frontier Six Shooter”. 5 1/16″ long overall with a 2 9/16″ rifled barrel of .210 caliber. Fully functional, but non-firing. Made by Uberti in Italy. One piece walnut grips. The caliber marking 45 CAL is stamped on the left rear side of the triggerguard, two patent dates stamped on the left front of the frame. Factory roll stamped one line italics barrel address. No Uberti marking under the barrel, and no plug in the barrel. The serial number, 833, is stamped on the bottom of the frame, triggerguard, & backstrap. 33 is stamped into the loading gate. Checkered hammer spur. Nickel silver blade type front sight. Black powder frame with the round “Bullseye” ejector rod button, the cylinder pin retained by a screw, and the early “pinched frame” topstrap. This miniature Colt has some issues. First of all, there is some wear to the blue, especially on the side of the ejector rod housing, cylinder, backstrap, and frontstrap. It’s not bad, and looks like a Colt with some normal wear in the normal places. Also the timing on the cylinder is not quite right. Sometimes it indexes correctly and the cylinder locks up in line with the barrel, sometimes not, sometimes it doesn’t move at all. Needs a little TLC by someone who knows how to work on these. Worth fixing, especially since it has an unplugged barrel with the factory barrel address. Priced accordingly. Sold “AS – IS”, no returns. Price: $400.00. !!!!!SOLD!!!!!
