COLT BISLEY

Overview and Provenance

Serial number SN: 294208 dates this piece to 1907, placing it squarely in the era when Colt’s Bisley frame was favored for its target-style hammer and grip angle. The revolver is a Colt product and reflects the company’s craftsmanship from that period. Priced at $1,995.99, it represents a balance of collectible value and usable condition for a turn-of-the-century handgun.

Condition & Mechanical Notes

This Colt Bisley features a 4.75″ barrel. The bore is described as dull with minor pitting, yet strong rifling remains — important for maintaining accuracy potential with period-correct or reloaded ammunition. The frame shows a gray/brown patina with scattered pitting consistent with age. Grips are in very good condition with moderate checkering remaining, and the action locks up tight, indicating the internals are well maintained. Overall condition is listed as good (C20238), which is attractive for users who want a functional collector piece rather than a restored show gun.

Caliber and Practical Use

Chambered in .32 W.C.F., this cartridge offers low recoil and workable accuracy for target shooting and historical demonstration. While not a modern defensive round, .32 W.C.F. is appropriate for range sessions, period shooting matches, and display collections. Buyers should verify modern ammunition availability and reload options if they plan to shoot regularly.
