Project Description
!!!!!SOLD!!!!! This is a set of four 47% scale Colt single action army revolvers made by Uberti in Italy. There are four different barrel lengths – 4 3/4″, 5 1/2″, 7 1/2″, and 12″. All four are factory engraved, gold wire inlaid, charcoal blue finished, and fitted with one piece bone grips. The serial numbers are not consecutive, but are all in the 12XX range. These have black powder frames with the early “pinched frame” top strap, round bull’s eye ejector rods, checkered hammer, cylinder pin secured by a screw, and the two line Colt patent dates on the left front of the frame. These miniatures were given special attention as to fit and finish at the factory, and are among the most beautiful of all the miniature Colts made by Uberti. This set is a near copy of the set featured on the slip cover of the book “The Art of Miniature firearms – Centuries of Craftsmanship” except the grips are not carved and they are facing the opposite direction. The casing is walnut with a hinged top and key lock, and an additional protective beveled glass under the lid. The interior is French fit in purple felt. A beautiful set that would be nearly impossible to assemble today. Mint as new condition. Additional photos on request. !!!!!SOLD!!!!!
