This is an 1860 Fluted Army manufactured in early 1861.  It has an eight inch barrel with Hartford address.  The gun is well used with light to moderate pitting here and there.  All of the components are original and all numbers are matching.  The serial number is found on the barrel, frame, trigger guard, back strap, barrel wedge, cylinder pin and at the rear of the cylinder.  The action is actually crisp and it locks up nice and tight.  There is strong rifling in the bore and the grips are sound with traces of the original varnish.  I don't know whether this gun was shipped North or South but Sam Colt introduced the Hartford barrel address so as not to offend his Southern customers.  Many of these early Flutes do letter to the South and I really have no idea whether this one will or not.  SOLD!!
