Hello guys. I got another one for you. A revolver this time.
On the butt of the revolver is "US. ARMY MODEL 1917, No. 46XXX"
On the top of the barrel is:
"COLT'S PT FA MFG CO HARTFORD, CT USA
PAT'D AUG 5 1884 JUNE 5 1900 JULY 4 1905"
On the bottom of the barrel it says, "UNITED STATES PROPERTY"
Inside the frame is the serial # 208XXX and the cylinder has a matching serial number.
What do I have here? Do I have an issue M1917?
