Here is a very cool original Colt revolver in the original box. This is the desirable Colt that was made in London officially under Colt's patent. They are known to collectors as the "London Colt" of the model 1851. This one is all original and in great shape. It has all matching serial numbers of 18,086 which lets us know that this one was made in 1855. They only made about 42,000 of these guns and this one is a nice one. It has the correct London style proof marks on all of the major parts. Across the top of the barrel it still reads "ADDRESS COL. COLT LONDON". It has the correct style iron triggerguard and backstrap. The side of the frame has the clear "COLT'S PATENT" stamping still visible to go along with the one on the side of the cylinder. As you can see the sides of the cylinder still retain approximately 40 to 50% of the original naval battle engagement scene. On the handle of the gun it has the very attractive original 1-piece wooden grips and they have the beautiful quality wood. What is special about this gun is that it is contained in the wooden case from the English retailer. The case that measures 14-1/4th inches by 7-1/4th inches by 2-1/4th inches in overall size has a beautiful look to the wood and even has the original brass inlay on the top. Inside it has the attractive red lining still nicely intact. It is accompanied by the cleaning rod, bullet mold, flask, oiler and percussion caps that are correct for this model of gun. The cap tin is a modern replacement but the other pieces are original. The flask has the Hawksley of Sheffield maker marking on the top. This is a very attractive original .36 caliber London Colt navy revolver in the fine case. Don't miss this set.
