SOLDHG-9 COLT M.1877 “THUNDERER”” .41 Cal. Dates 1878. 2 ½ inch barrel with etched panel “COLT D.A. 41”. .41 Cal stamped on the left side of the trigger guard. The barrel 2 line address “COLT’S PT.F.A. MFG. CO./HARTFORD CT. USA”. The “C” from Colt and the “H” from Hartford are not visible as the foresight is in the way. It looks like it was reset. The barrel appears original in every way, however, the frame is made for the ejector housing which was only made with barrel lengths above 3 ½ inch. The fact that it dates 2nd Year of Production could indicate a shortage of non-ejector frames. The holster, which is original to this gun, is molded to the gun. Note the ejector housing and front sight are clearly defined. Every ridge and angle of the gun is visible in the leather. The holster is excellent. It would be interesting to get a letter on this gun. Very nice chequered hard rubber grip with rampant Colt oval. Tight crisp action. The bore is very good with sharp rifling. V.G.
