| Appraiser Comments: | Colt model 1877 Lightning double action revolver in .38 Colt. The serial number is 148304, is listed as having a 4 1/2" barrel. This gun has a ejector rod housing which was offered with or without. The revolver appears to be in good original condition with minimal finish remaining, but traces of bluing still left on the cylinder, and barrel. The grips appear to be in very good shape and overal I would say the gun is in good to very good condition. The model 1877 Lightning double action revolvers were made from 1877 - 1910 with total production numbers being around 166,000 made. Standard calibers were .38 Colt or .32 Colt. Barrels were offered with or without ejector rod I reccomend having these type revolvers examined in person to verify the guns condition, and grade the finish as its hard to really tell for sure from pictures. If the gun turns out to be all original and in very good condition then it could be worth around $ 1,200.00 - 1,500.00 range. * Current Fair Market Value: $1,200.00 ** Replacement Cost: $1,500.00 All values are in US currency |
