Documented John Adams Sr. Signed and Master Engraved Silver Plated Copy of George S. Patton's First Generation Colt Single Action Army Revolver with Carved Patriotic Eagle Grips

Manufactured in 1902 and subsequently masterfully transformed into a replica of the iconic Single Action Army famously carried by General George S. Patton by Master Engraver John Adams Sr. The revolver displays floral scroll engraving on a punch-dot background with zig-zags, intertwining lines, checkered panels, fans, and starburst motifs. The work is signed "J ADAMS" on the front of the triggerguard. The left grip is carved with an eagle holding a patriotic shield and the right is scrimshawed with the initials "GSP". The included letter confirms the caliber, barrel length, Patton style engraving, finish, and carved grips when completed on April 25, 2007.

ConditionVery fine, as embellished by Master Engraver John Adams Sr., retaining 99% plus silver plating with limited handling marks, an attractive patina, and crisp engraving. Grips are also very fine with a few minor hairline age cracks and an attractive aged coloration. Mechanically excellent. This would make an exceptional addition to any U.S. Military Colt Single Action Army Collection!
