One of approximately 4,000 manufactured from 1880 to 1886, with the vast majority being chambered in .38 or .41 CF. The top of the barrel has the two-line address, and the "COLT. 32." etched panel is on the left. There are British proofs (some from inter-war period) on the barrel, frame, and cylinder, including "NOT ENGLISH MAKE" partially overlapping the etched panel. It has standard features including checkered hard rubber grips with "COLT" in ovals at the tops. The serial number is on the butt, and the partial serial number is on the rear face of the cylinder. Includes a hardwood case with Colt London Agency interior label, cleaning rod, key, and eighteen Kynoch .32 CF cartridges.

Rating Definition:

Very fine, retains 75% of the original blue finish with numerous scattered dings and scratches, the balance having thinned to mostly a smooth grey patina and some scattered minor handling marks. The grips are fine with a few scattered minor dings and flat spots, and otherwise crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent.
