Serial Number:
Catalog Page: 137
Class: Modern Handgun
Description:

Only manufactured in 1985 with a total production of only 1200 with 600 made with the 6 inch barrel (gun "A") and 600 made with 4 inch barrel (gun "B"), and only 100 of these consecutively numbered sets sold, making this revolver set even rarer. The entire production was purchased and marketed by Lew Horton Distributing Company in Southboro, Mass. The revolvers have standard markings, orange insert blade front sight, adjustable target rear sight and checkered walnut grips with gold Colt medallions. With wood display case that holds both "A" and "B" guns and original "woodgrain" boxes numbered to each gun.

Rating Definition:

Near new in box overall, retains 99% plus original blue finish with a few light handling marks and a faint cylinder drag line. The grip checkering is sharp. Mechanically excellent. The box is fair with a large tear in the top, labeled end flap completely detached but present, and some minor-moderate wear. The display case is good with two long hairline cracks that span the width of the lid and otherwise limited minor handling marks/storage marks.
