Colt ~ Model 1917 U.S. Army ~ .45 ACP
Description: Very good condition, some finish wear, small nicks and scratches. Classic Colt military revolver, 5 1/2" barrel, blued finish, fixed sights, double and single action trigger, 6 shot fluted cylinder, smooth wood grips and lanyard ring. The M1917 Revolvers were six-shot, .45 ACP, large frame double action revolvers adopted by the United States Military in 1917, to supplement the standard M1911 pistol during World War I. There were two variations of the M1917, one made by Colt and the other by Smith & Wesson. They used moon-clips to hold the cartridges in position, facilitate reloading, and to aid in extraction since revolvers had been designed to eject rimmed cartridges and .45 ACP rounds were rimless for use with the magazine-fed M1911. After World War I, they gained a strong following among civilian shooters. A commercial rimmed cartridge, the .45 Auto Rim, was also developed, so M1917 revolvers could eject cartridge cases without using moon-clips. .45 ACP SOLD Curio/Relic: Yes Chambers: Revolver Metal Condition: Very good Bore Condition: Bright Barrels: 5 1/2 Triggers: Double and single action Butt Pad: Wood grips Sights: "Fixed rear, blade front sights Item Location: Buda, TX |
