The Colt M1877, designed by William Manson, was Colt's initial venture into manufacturing a double-action revolver, following the success of the iconic Colt Single Action Army. It was produced in various lengths and chambered in different calibers. The specific model discussed here is the Hartford model, based on the "Lighting" variant, chambered in .38 Long Colt. Notably, this model gained fame as it was owned by Jerome Caminada, a renowned Victorian detective and head of the CID in Manchester, England, often referred to as Manchester's Sherlock Holmes.
The Hartford Colt Lightning M1877 4.5inch Heavy Weight Model Gun faithfully replicates the Colt "Lighting" M1877.

Upon picking it up, you will realize that it functions just like the actual revolver, featuring a double/single-action trigger. Whether you require a prop for wild west-themed scenarios, training purposes, or simply a decorative wall hanger, the Hartford Lightning model gun is an ideal choice, offering the double-action traits you seek.
