Just listed on the auction side. Colt Burgess .44/40 serial number 79 made in 1883 with Colt letter included. Colt Burgess lever actions are very hard to find, much less in this condition with such a low serial number. Here is a chance to own a very rare antique Colt lever action, this rifle would be the centerpiece of any collection! Thanks for looking![:)]

    Nice old rifle...SN 79 at that! It's unusual for this old model gun not to have the proverbial cracks in the forearm.
    What's next?

    It is is very good condition, it must have been well cared for through the years. I wish Colt would have kept making Burgess lever actions so we would have Winchester revolvers![:)]
