Manufactured in 1849. This rare and desirable Baby Dragoon, serial number 9871, retains most of its original dull Colt factory blue on barrel, faded case hardening on frame (never vibrant on this model), and round cylinder stops. Cylinder has nearly all of its original cavalry and Indian scene with strong traces of original blue and showing little if any wear. Back strap and trigger guard retain nearly all the original darkened heavy silver plating. Revolver has all matching numbers, including wedge. Single cylinder pin is intact. Bore is bright with minor roughness. Grips are figured walnut and original to gun with some added finish. Case is original with lid having an extra coat of varnish, faded wine red lining, unusual flask with plunger and raised Baby Dragoon on face, loading tool, and early brass Colt mold. One of the best long barreled Baby Dragoons to be offered in recent years. CORRECTION: Barrel length corrected to 6"
