Posted on 25/03/16 | Item #872 | Origin: 1848 | Asking price: €16500


Colt First model dragoon revolver US Army issued. serial 5372, all matching for frame barrel, triggerguard , backstrap and cylinder. the lever has serial 300. This is a correct first type lever and probably a battlefield replacement. couldn't get the wedge out, still have to check that one.


It is truly an outstanding dragoon for a type one. all of these saw hard service and it is incredibly difficult to find an honest Us type one having a good adress, remnants of scene and good bore.

this one is the exception. The scene is 100 %, ulltra sharp adres and bore is a good 9/10, light spots visible , having deep rifling. The barrel is still showing some blue in the protected corners. Rest is a dark brown patina.

The original grips are showing remnants (the outside lines) of the inspectormarks and the right side is showing a texas star. the bottom of the barrel has 15 % blue left.

Brass is uncleaned and no traces of silver. as should be since the miltitary issued ones had no silver. Works perfect.
Would be very expensive to find a better one.

Flayderman page 85, shows this one in fine condition for 35000 $, and this one is close to excellent. BEST OF BEST
