Here is a very cool and beautiful 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 1,463 which lets us know that this one was made in 1853, which was the first year of production. They only made about 42,000 of these guns and this one is a great looking 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 early style silver washed brass 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 barrel have the engraving still visible which is a nice touch on an already attractive revolver. The sides of the cylinder still retain approximately 75% 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 factory varnish to each side. What is special about this gun is that it is contained in the original case from the English retailer. The case that measures 14.25" x 6.25" x 2.25" 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 green lining still nicely intact. It is accompanied by the cleaning rod, bullet mold, flask and percussion caps that are correct for this model of gun. On the top of the inside of the box it has the English retailer's label of "THEOPHILUS MURCOTT./Gun Maker/68. Haymarket/London.S.W.". This is a very attractive original .36 caliber London Colt navy revolver in the original retailers case. Don't miss this set. THIS
