COLLECTIBLE FIREARMS

Atlas Collectible Firearms is profoundly honored to present a masterful work of Victorian-era craftsmanship: an antique Colt Model 1877 Lightning manufactured in 1894. This double-action revolver is chambered in the classic .38 Long Colt and features the compact 3.5-inch barrel. As a premier example of 19th-century design, this Lightning serves as a high-art tribute to the Old West.
This revolver showcases professional-level hand engraving across its custom nickel-plated finish, accented beautifully by vibrant fire blued screws and components. It is appointed with a set of custom hand-carved elephant ivory grips, featuring an intricate relief-carved "Dead Man's Hand" playing card motif on the right panel. The scrollwork is expertly executed throughout the frame, barrel, and cylinder.
While this antique specimen does not include a factory box, it remains a top-tier display piece with smooth mechanical action. The bore and chambers show some honest pitting and wear consistent with its 130-year history, though the exterior remains in exceptional collector condition. This is a unique investment-grade masterpiece for the serious Colt aficionado seeking a one-of-a-kind heirloom.
