Description
A Colt U.S. Army Model 1917 New Service .45 ACP Double Action Revolver. Constructed from steel, the revolver features a swing-out cylinder and smooth wooden grip panels. Prominent markings on the barrel include “COLT D.A. .45” and “COLT’S PT. F. A. MFG CO. HARTFORD, CT U.S.A.” with patent dates of August 5, 1884, June 5, 1900, and July 4, 1905.

Condition report:
Fair condition. The original blued finish is largely worn to a grey patina with visible surface wear and scattered pitting throughout. The wooden grips are intact but show overall wear. The revolver appears structurally complete.
