Bisley single action revolver manufactured by Colt in 1904. The left side of the barrel is stamped "(BISLEY MODEL) 38 W.C.F.", with Colt's single line address across the top. The left side of the frame is stamped with patent information followed by the encircled Rampant Colt logo. Frame and hammer are case color hardened, with the barrel, ejector rod housing, cylinder, trigger guard, and grip straps being blued. Frame is mounted with 2-piece checkered Colt hard rubber grips. Matching numbers are present on the frame, trigger guard, and butt. Cylinder is unnumbered. Revolver is accompanied by a Colt factory letter indicating that this example was the sole revolver shipped to Watkins-Cottrell Company in Richmond, Virginia, on February 16th, 1904. CONDITION: Very good, with the frame retaining vibrant case coloring overall, save for a few minor areas of wear, mainly along the edges. Blued components retain the majority of their original factory applied finish, exhibiting some areas of mild wear, areas of thinning showing through to a pleasant brown patina, as well as some spots of light surface oxidation that is mainly present on the grip straps. Grips show a few nicks and marks from handling and storage, but are otherwise fine. A very nice example of an over-a-century-old Colt Bisley revolver.
