Description:

Manufactured in 1931. The top of the barrel is marked with the one line address, the left side is marked "COLT SINGLE ACTION ARMY .38 SPECIAL" and the left side of the frame is marked with the two line, three patent dates followed by the Rampant Colt. Standard blade front and "v" notch rear sights, all nickel finish including the hammer, trigger and screws and fitted with pearl grips with a scrimshawed horseshoe on the left panel and a relief carved steer head with ruby red eyes on the right panel. The revolver comes with an extensively floral tooled Buscadero Pattern Gun Rig with 36 loops for 38 caliber cartridges, five silver hearts and a silver flower, with a 34 inch to 38 inch size. The holster has a wide back skirt and T-shaped collar with a silver concho. The bottom of the back skirt is marked S.D. MYRES/illegible". The holster will accommodate a Colt Single Action Army revolver with a 4 /3/4 or 5 inch barrel.

Rating Definition:

Very good as replated with 95% of the chrome finish remaining showing some minor flaking and some thinning on the grip straps and hammer. Other than the steer head being in need of a little cleaning, the grips are fine. The markings are clear. The action is excellent. The belt and holster are fair with some heavy wear, some loose stitching and six of the cartridge loops are either split or absent.
