Catalog Page: 204
Class: Curio & Relic Handgun
Description:

Manufactured circa 1922. Features standard blade and slide notch sights, two-line Hartford address and patent dates and Rampant Colt are on the left side of the slide with the model and caliber noted on the right in two lines. The left trigger guard bow is marked with the standard Colt "VP" proof under the inspector "1" stamp. The matching serial number is stamped under the slide along with factory "question mark" style rework mark. Fitted with smooth pearl grips with deeply inset nickel Rampant Colt medallions. Includes a hard to find Colt presentation case with a black textured paper exterior, nickel finished closure, blue velvet lining on the bottom, and royal blue satin on the top with the Colt serpentine logo. These cases have become very hard to find and harder yet in relatively good condition.

Rating Definition:

Very fine as factory replated with 98% plus nickel finish, sharp edges, crisp markings and minimal scattered slight dings. The grips are very good with a very small glue repair on the left panel at the screw escutcheon which is stripped of threads. Mechanically excellent. The presentation case is fine with edge and corner wear, solid fittings, and weakening at the paper and cloth hinge area.
