Colt 1908 Vest Pocket w/ Box & Inserts/Hangtag Mfg. in 1910
Description: Manufactured in 1910, this Colt 1908 is in an original box that is also ink stamped "Jun.21, 1910" on the bottom. Both the pistol and the box are in very good condition. This 1908 Vest Pocket pistol retains 90%+ of the original high polish bright blue factory finish found on Colt Pistols manufactured before 1915. The trigger, safety lever, and grip safety all show varying degrees of factory case colors. The bore is excellent, it's bright with strong rifling with well defined lands and grooves. The original black hard rubber grips are in excellent shape. They are free from cracks or repairs and the checkering and logos are still nice and crisp. The original box that comes with this pistol is overall in very good shape. The outer black covering is flaking in some places but the box is structurally sound with good corners and an intact hinge. Only 1 of the inner liner corners has seperated and it is held in place by the outer box. The factory label is missing a small piece of the bottom left corner area, but all of the writing is still there and the colors look great. All of the original box inserts are still with the gun which we rarely see. That includes an owners manual, a pamphlet titled "Do All Safety Devices Really Safeguard?" and a small hangtag specifying the pistol is chambered for the .25 Colt Auto Cartridge and reloads must not be used. This little 1908 Vest Pocket Colt is as complete as they get and a real find. Rarely do we see original boxes with these guns much less all the paperwork that came with them over 100 years ago. This would be a great addition to any Colt or firearm collection and a great investment piece as well. SOLD Curio/Relic: Yes Manufacturer: Colt Model: 1908 "Vest Pocket Serial Number: 35372 Caliber Info: .25 ACP |
