Scarce Documented Pre-War Colt Shooting Master .357 Double Action Target Revolver with Factory Letter

Only about 500 Colt Shooting Master revolvers were manufactured in .357 magnum caliber. The included factory letter confirms the serial number, caliber, barrel length, finish, and June 27, 1939, date of shipment to Hibbard, Spencer, Bartlett & Company of Chicago, Illinois, as a single gun shipment. Elevation adjustable Patridge blade front and windage adjustable rear notch sights, standard markings, checkered hammer, trigger, and grip straps, and checkered medallion grips.

ConditionVery fine. 85% plus original blue finish remains with edge wear and scratches, some light spotting, and handling marks overall. Grips are fine slightly undersize replacements with crisp checkering and some small dings. Mechanically excellent.
