The 1889 was essentially the grandfather to the modern Colt Double Action revolver and was their first with a "swing-out" cylinder. Note the cleaner lines which is mainly due to the outside of the cylinder having longer flutes and the absence of any visible stop notches. Colt built just 31,000 of these from 1889 to 1894 with the first 5,000 units going to the US Navy. Following its introduction, Colt quickly improved the 1889 by adding duals sets of stop notches on the cylinders in addition to various other internal improvements. As a result of these improvements, nearly all of the 5,000 USN's were upgraded to the New Navy configuration with cylinder stops added. At Colt, the 1889 was soon phased out of production and these new improved models went on to become known as the Colt New Army or Navy Revolver, with various year designations defining the improvements, e.g. 1892, 1894, 1895, 1896, 1901, 1903, etc.
