Colt's Model 1877 Double Action, "Lightning" Revolver, .38 Caliber CF

Family and Museum records state that "the thief who owned this gun stole a barrel of whiskey from the Satterfield Store in Henrietta, Texas before being arrested by Deputy Harrison Schwend". The thief was relieved of this gun which found its way into the collection. As you will note, the hammer has been bobbed to allow for smoother draw from a holster.
