This Colt Single Action Army is a Frontier Six Shooter made in 1879 and chambered in .44-40, with a 7.5 inch barrel. The supplier gives serial number 52840 and describes the gun as all matching. The etched panel on the barrel is still visible, and the barrel retains about 70 percent of its original finish. The one-piece ivory grips are carved with a Mexican eagle on the left side. Our listing marks the gun as used.

A single action revolver made in 1879 suits a Missouri buyer who collects historic American handguns, because the original finish, etched panel and carved grips are the main points of interest. The .44-40 chambering is listed, so the revolver is a collector configuration rather than a general shooting setup.
