Description:

Manufactured in 1915, this pistol exhibits the late, "grey/blue" factory finish that was implemented around serial number 36000. The included factory letter confirms the current configuration, grips not listed, and shipment to George Worthington & Co. in Cleveland, Ohio on 9 June 1915. Fixed sights, the two-line/two-block patent dates and address on the left side of the slide ahead of the Rampant Colt, and the caliber markings on the right ahead of the ejector port. The trigger guard is marked "VP" and "1" on the left side, with a checkered casehardened spur hammer, smooth trigger, unmarked full blue magazine, and a pair of checkered hard rubber grips with Rampant Colts and "COLT" banners at the top. Includes a correctly labeled factory box that is unnumbered.

Rating Definition:

Excellent, retains 99% plus of the original blue finish and vibrant case colors on the hammer with only the slightest handling/storage marks. The grips are also excellent with only the slightest handling marks. Mechanically excellent. The box is fine with some mild handling/storage wear. It would be difficult to find a higher condition example of the Colt Model 1903 Pocket Hammer pistol!
