At a listed price of $2395.99, it represents a well-preserved piece of Colt heritage that stands out in the Revolver category.

Design Details That Matter

Barrel and Accuracy

A 6″ barrel provides an extended sight radius and improved ballistic performance compared with shorter-barreled contemporaries. For shooters who value accuracy on the range, that length translates to tighter group potential and more predictable trajectories with period-correct or modern .38 loads.

Caliber and Practical Applications

This specimen is chambered in 38 caliber, a versatile choice for both defensive awareness and controlled target work. The .38 caliber offers manageable recoil for quick follow-up shots, broad ammo availability, and a balance between penetration and controllability suitable for range practice and defensive familiarity.

Collector and Shooter Considerations

Collectors should note the exact serial number 251035 and the 1905 manufacture date when verifying provenance and matching historical documentation. Shooters assessing fit and function will appreciate the long barrel and the reported excellent condition; these factors reduce the need for immediate restoration and make the revolver serviceable for controlled range use.
