The factory letter confirms this revolver was used a "Show Gun" at the 2003 AFL-CIO Union Show in Pittsburgh, PA, and at the 2003 Colt Collectors Association Show in Tamp, FL. It also confirms the current configuration including the "Class 'B' expert level engraving including the front sight" by John Adams Jr. and that it originally also included a glass-top display case when it was shipped to J & J Custom Firearms in Columbus, OH, on November 20, 2003. Includes the original shipping sleeve and box.

Rating Definition:

Near new with light handling and storage marks and very faint cylinder drag lines. The left grip is also near new with light handling marks, but the right grip has a minor 1 inch crack. The boxes have minor storage wear.
