chequering on the front of the trigger guard is most unusual for this period, and probably indicates use with a two-handed grip (i.e. not for formal target shooting).
Vulcanite grips with large 'C' around escutcheon. Bead adjustable foresight, drift adjustable rearsight. Professionally executed non-standard chequering on prawl and upper part of the backstrap, and on the front of the triggerguard. London proved. | Publisher: | http://www.iwm.org.uk | Source: | Imperial War Museum | Creator: | Colt's Patent Firearms Manufacturing Co, Hartford, CT, USA | Identifier: | http://www.iwm.org.uk/collections/item/o... | Go to resource |
