Description:

Manufactured in 1982 and subsequently fully custom engraved in the traditional Texas cattle brand pattern pioneered by Cole Agee and carried on by Weldon Bledsoe. The cattle brand pattern developed in the 1940/50s and depicted the more prominent and historic Texas cattle brands used in the 1880s and early 1900s. The revolver has near full coverage engraving in the typical western style with the recognizable "2 Lazy 2 (sideways) P" as well as many other famous Texas brands, all on a punch dot background. There are standard Colt markings including matching serial numbers on on the frame, trigger guard, and back strap. The gold Rampant Colt medallion grips feature scrimshaw scrollwork on cross hatching background.

Rating Definition:

Very fine as professionally cattle brand engraved, retaining 98% of the gold finish with some oxidation on the muzzle. The engraving is crisp. The grips are very fine with surface chip near the bottom (right panel) and attractive color. Mechanically excellent.
