Simple floral-like patterns are engraved between the cylinder flutes and a fan-like pattern is engraved on the top of the backstrap. The backstrap is engraved with the block inscription "'1995 SHOW GUN'" and "TGCA 3" on the butt. The accompanying Colt factory letter identifies this revolver with Fleur-de-lis checkered ivory grips. According to the consignor, the Fleur-de-lis checkered ivory grips are new and were carved by the renowned artist Paul Persinger of El Paso. The letter states that the original shipment address for this revolver is unavailable and was returned to the factory for evaluation and issuance of the historical letter. The last known shipment address, states the letter, was to Collector Firearms, Houston, Texas, on 16 November 2006. Included is a Colt wooden case lined with blue velvet and missing key. Complete with Colt factory blue box and 1994 dated ordering information from the Texas Gun Collectors Association to Colt Manufacturing.

Rating Definition:

Near new in case with only the slightest finish loss on the grip strap edges.
