This
is a nice 47% scale Colt single action army "Classic Edition" revolver Model of 1873 as issued by the United States
Historical Society back in the 1980's. All of these have serial number "1" stamped into the barrel, frame,
triggerguard, & backstrap. This is because this is an exact miniature of serial # 1 Colt SAA. The actual serial
number is stamped into the cylinder pin boss just below the cylinder pin, on the rear of the cylinder, and also into
the loading gate. 6 1/8" long overall with a 3 7/16" long rifled barrel. Fully functional, but non-firing.
Typical of the early Colt SAA's, this has the "pinched" frame sight, the round "Bullseye" ejector rod
button, and the cylinder pin retained by a screw. The top of the barrel is roll stamped with the single line Colt "Italics"
barrel address. The left front of the frame roll stamped with the Colt patents in two lines. The left rear of
the triggerguard stamped with the ".45 CAL" caliber markings. As per the originals, the frame, hammer,
and loading gate are color case hardened. The balance of the steel parts are a beautiful high polish black blue.
Nickel silver front sight. Walnut one piece grips. Complete with the original USHS mahogany hinged top casing
with slide latch. The Colt logo stamped into the right front corner of the top. The interior French fit with a
forest green velour lining and includes the typical USHS "Classic Edition" brass plaque. Also includes
the original two piece cardboard lift top box with cream bottom and brown top and the plastic protective bag that the
case was sleeved in. About 99% condition with some minor signs of handling wear, no cylinder drag mark, a
small pitted area on the side front of the cylinder, and several pin prick blemishes on the barrel. Additional photos
soon. Price: $600.00 |

This is a 47% scale
miniature Colt 1861 Navy revolver, engraved, with detachable shoulder stock. This is very similar to the
United States Historical Society "Presidential Edition" which is fully engraved, including the shoulder stock
fittings and buttplate, but where the USHS version is fully silver plated, this one is in a blue and case colored finish.
The barrel, barrel wedge, cylinder, nipples, screws, triggerguard, backstrap, trigger, lanyard ring, and stock locking
screws are all blue. The frame, loading lever, and hammer are case colored. The stock yoke and buttplate are brass with
a pleasing mellow patina. Serial # 22 stamped into the barrel, frame, backstrap, cylinder, and stock yoke. Beautiful
highly figured one piece grips and shoulder stock. The the piece is in absolute mint condition. A truly attractive
piece and the only one like this that I have ever seen. Includes a USHS "Classic Edition" glass
topped case with etched Colt logo on the glass, French fit and lined in a blue/gray velour which is not original to the miniature,
but does a great job of displaying and protecting it. Photo 2, Photo 3, Photo 4, Photo 5, Photo 6, Photo 7, Photo 8, Photo 9, Photo 10, Photo 11, Photo 12, Photo 13, Photo 14, Photo 15, Photo 16, Photo 17 Price:

!!!!!SALE!!!!! This is a gorgeous true 50% or 1/2 scale Colt single
action army revolver by an unknown maker. 6 3/8" long overall with a 3 11/16" rifled barrel of .22 caliber.
This would be the 7 1/2" barreled version. This is very obviously larger than a 47% scale Uberti Colt SAA. Highly
polished engraved blue finish with gold plating and gold wire inlays. The majority of the steel parts are blued
with the exception of the hammer, trigger, cylinder pin, and ejector rod which are gold plated. The barrel, frame, cylinder,
ejector rod housing, backstrap, and triggerguard are expertly engraved with about 50% coverage. There are double gold
wire inlaid bands at the muzzle, just behind the front sight, at the rear of the barrel, and at the rear of the cylinder.
There is a single gold line wire inlaid along the bottom and rear of the frame. Engraved nickel silver front sight,
black powder frame, and round bullseye ejector rod button. The barrel is properly marked with the Colt one line barrel
address. The left front side of the frame marked with the two Colt patent dates in two lines. No serial numbers
anywhere. There is a cryptic marking on the bottom of the ejector rod housing which looks like a combination of the
letters T, J, and F. I don't know if this is the mark of the maker or maybe the engraver. Beautiful high relief
raised carved ivory grips showing a Mexican eagle, snake, and cactus. The right grip showing a couple of age surface
cracks running diagonally from the heal of the butt up to the hammer. The cylinder will chamber a .22 rimfire cartridge,
but the firing pin is centerfire, so it will not shoot them. No casing or accessories. Outstanding condition with
just a little friction wear on the sides of the hammer. I believe this to be a one-of-a-kind piece by a true master
miniature maker of the equal of Ray Hutchens or Leon Crotett. Photo 2, Photo 3, Photo 4, Photo 5, Photo 6, Photo 7, Photo 8, Photo 9, Photo 10, Photo 11, Photo 12, Photo 13, Photo 14, Photo 15, Photo 16, Photo 17 !!!!!SALE $2,895.00!!!!! |

A
beautiful 47% scale Colt Single Action Army "Flat Top Target Model" revolver. This started life as a standard Colt
SAA from Uberti. The late Terry Farrand milled off the original top strap, then machined the new Flat Top Target top strap
and micro welded it on. He also hand made the special target front sight and base. He then did the high polish on the metal
which would be standard on a Flat Top Target model. Roger Sampson hand engraved the markings including the barrel address
on the top of the barrel. The serial 1834 is engraved on the frame, triggerguard, and backstrap. All high polish
blue finish as would be standard on a Flat Top Target model. Two piece black hard rubber grips with the rampant Colt logo
near the top and a winged eagle with shield near the bottom on both sides. The grips with brass escutcheons and a fire blue
screw. A great piece and perfect in every aspect. Cased in a great oak and leather luggage type hinged top
casing with 24 dummy cartridges, an oil bottle, a cleaning rod, and the Colt instructions interior lid label. Price: $1,500.00 |
