This video analyzes the Colt 1902 Philippine Model revolver, a modification of the Colt 1878 Double Action Army. The description details its development to address issues like light primer strikes, specifically fitting a stronger hammer spring and lengthening the trigger for increased leverage. This enhanced reliability was crucial for its adoption by the Philippine Constabulary. The video highlights its historical significance as Colt's entry into the large-frame double-action revolver market and its distinct appearance, often mistaken for the Alaskan Model. It clarifies that the 1878/1902, not the Single Action Army, was the primary .45 caliber revolver acquired for service in the Philippines around 1902.
