1901 vintage Colt Bisley single action revolver, serial number 215877. 5 - 1/2" round barrel chambered in .44-40 Winchester Center Fire with standard SAA blade front sight and notched rear.

Matching serial numbers on bottom of backstrap, trigger guard, and frame. 2 piece brown hard rubber grips with Rampant Colts on left and right sides.
