The Colt M1877 was designed by William Manson, one of the inventors of the legendary Colt Single Action Army revolver, and was Colt's first attempt at manufacturing a double-action revolver. The Colt M1877 was made in different lengths and chambered in different calibers, with this particular Hartford model gun being based on the "Lightning" model, which was chambered in .38 Long Colt. This model is also famously owned by a Victorian detective and head of CID, Jerome Caminada of Manchester, England who was also known as Manchester's Sherlock Holmes.
The Hartford Colt Lightning M1877 3.5-inch Heavy Weight Model Gun is a faithful replica of the Colt "Lightning" M1877. This model gun is made with heavyweight polymer that does not look or feel plastic. Once you pick it up, you will see that it loads and operates exactly like the real thing, as it has a double / single-action trigger. If you are looking for a wild west sidearm that has double action traits for prop use, training, or even as a wall hanger, the Hartford Lightning M1877 is just the thing you need.
