Antique COLT LIGHTING Small Frame HUNTING/SPORTING Slide Action .22 RIMFIRE Pump Action Rifle Made in 1888
Description: Antique COLT LIGHTING Small Frame HUNTING/SPORTING Slide Action .22 RIMFIRE Pump Action Rifle Made in 1888 Here we present an antique Colt Lightning Small Frame Slide Action Rifle, made in 1888 in Hartford, Connecticut. This was Colt’s entry into the pistol caliber rifle and carbine market, which was absolutely dominated by Winchester at this time. Pistol caliber rifles were instrumental in the hands of those settling the West, as they were able to carry one type of ammunition to feed both their long gun and their sidearm. It also enabled a rifle to be stoked with the maximum number of cartridges, sacrificing power for capacity, useful when outnumbered at close range. The Colt Lightning was fairly successful, but never approached the numbers that Winchester’s lever action were able to achieve. This specimen is chambered in .22 rimfire, a very light and handy cartridge for hunting small game or just going out to do some plinking. The overall condition is near fine. Original blue finish. There are some tool marks around the breech end of the barrel. The action is excellent. The bore is in very good condition with nice rifling and no pitting. The stock shows use and remains in great condition. There is a small chip at the left toe of the hard rubber butt plate, though the rest is solid. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 24 inches. Caliber: .22 Rimfire (Short, black powder) Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE. Delivered directly to your door by express mail! Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $2000 #227774 SOLD Antique: Yes |
