This desirable Colt Dragoon shoulder stock is serial numbered for Third Model revolvers "16901" and "16902" on the lower tang and heel of the buttplate and has an oval script "WAT" (William A. Thornton) inspection cartouche stamped on the right side of the wrist and a "CGC" (C.G. Chandler) cartouche on the left. It fits the Third Model Dragoon revolvers with the proper frame and grip frame cuts and the extended mounting screws.

Fine overall with dark brown patina, moderate oxidation, distinct cartouches, and general moderate overall wear including dings and scrapes on the wood. A very desirable accessory to accompany a U.S. Colt Third Model Dragoon cut for a shoulder stock!
