"COLT SINGLE ACTION ARMY REVOLVER. SN 147354. Cal. 45 Colt. Silver finish with 7-1/2" bbl, slightly altered front sight and 1-line block letter address on top with caliber marking on left side. It has a large "P" proof and a tiny "45" on bottom of bbl under base pin. Left side of frame has 2-line patent dates with rampant Colt in a circle. Mounted with 2-pc smooth pearl grips that apparently are not orig to this revolver as the locater pin hole has been welded shut. CONDITION: About fine. Overall retains about 80% silver finish that may be a very old restoration. Grips have a few minor chips with a large repair in left heel and have great color & fire. Restoring the grip locater pin is a simple job for a competent gunsmith. Hammer does not retract fully in safety notch but is completely sound. Mechanics are fine, very bright shiny bore. 4-33873 JR327 (2,000-3,000)"
