1873 Hartford colt by ASM question?
Is anyone here familiar with ASM's hartford colt, model 1873SAA? I just bought one on Gun Auction and I'm trying to find out either manuactures date or when they were inported. This one is like brand new, never fired in 45 colt cal.
Its twice as nice as the auction pics. locks up tight, smooth trigger pull. Nicely finished dark bluing and case hardedned steel frame.. 7 1/2 barrel. Any info would be appreciated. |

Look for a date code on the revolver....
Here they are from 75 to 08
AA=1975 AB=1976 AC=1977 AD=1978 AE=1979 AF=1980 AH=1981 (notice they skip AG) AI=1982 AL=1983 (skipped AJ and AK) AM=1984 AN=1985 AP=1986 (skipping AO) AS=1987 (skiping AQ and AR) AT=1988 AU=1989 AZ=1990 (skipping AV,AW,AX, and AY) BA=1991 BB=1992 BC=1993 BD=1994 BF=1995 (skipping BE) BH=1996 (skipping BG) BI=1997 BL=1998 (skipping BJ and BK) BM=1999 BN=2000 BP=2001 (skipping BO) BS=2002 BT=2003 BU=2004 BV=2005 BW=2006 BX=2007 BY=2008 I have not followed date codes post 2008, but I have three Ubertis with date codes CF and CI.
